Crocs kid's collection continues to grow with the addition of the new Dawson, MacKenzie, Teton and Sophia. Not only do all four back-to-school styles look great, but each style completely encloses the foot, an important consideration for many parents, as well as a requirement at many schools. Additionally, like all Crocs[TM] shoes, these new styles simplify moms' life as they are easy on/easy off, easy to clean and comfortable for even the most active kids.

Crocs' new Dawson (MSRP: $34.99) model has a casual sneaker style that is perfect for boys or girls and incorporates a faux fur lining to keep small feet warm as kids head back to school. The Dawson features a water resistant suede upper and Jibbitz[TM] hole to allow kids to further express their personal style with a variety of Jibbitz[TM] charms. Available in sizes c4-j3 and a variety of color combinations, including navy/navy, silver/black, black/charcoal, espresso/walnut, chocolate/bubblegum, the Dawson is sure to be a hit on school playgrounds everywhere.

Just for girls, the new Sophia (MSRP: $29.99) is an easy on and off, chic flat that comes adorned with a rhinestone heart Jibbitz[TM] charm. The Sophia includes synthetic material at the back of the shoe for a secure and supportive fit and to help prevent slippage. Girls can choose from three color combinations including bubblegum/rose, black/silver and chocolate/bubblegum. The Sophia is available in sizes c4-j3.

With leather detailing and Crocs' iconic strap, the Teton (MSRP: $34.99) is the perfect back to school shoe for boys. The Teton's rubber sole provides added traction for active boys looking for adventure in the schoolyard and is available in black/charcoal, espresso/walnut and navy/light grey color combinations and sizes c4-j3.

Every little fashionista looking for a new trendy Mary Jane style need look no further than the new MacKenzie (MSRP: $34.99) from Crocs. Complete with a glam rhinestone Jibbitz[TM] charm, the MacKenzie is available in a variety of color combinations including black/berry, bubblegum/chocolate, bubblegum/rose and sky blue/lilac in sizes c4-j3.
