Justin Bieber’s new Crocs are here and fans were upset they couldn’t get a pair

Rinse, wash, repeat.

Sorry isn’t going to cut it this time from Justin Bieber.

After weeks of waiting for his new Crocs to finally release on Tuesday, fans everywhere on the internet were left empty handed (or empty carted?) when the Crocs instantly sold out after hours of waiting in line.

The process was a whole mess. They were scheduled to release at 12 noon Eastern Time. Customers were supposed to be able to wait in virtual lines for a chance to buy the clogs.

But because of the high demand for the Crocs, they pushed the release back to 1 p.m. instead of 12.

Customers got back in line and waited for nearly two hours after that tweet for the shoes just to sell out around 2:30 p.m.

Needless to say, fans were not happy with the process.

This was particularly upsetting because there were customers who, once again, were using bots to take up multiple spaces in line and buy multiple pairs despite the limit only being one per customer.

This is literally the same thing as the Bad Bunny drop. The same process. It’s also the same as, basically, every hyped Nike SNKRS drop there is. They release these shoes with very little protection against bots and fans of the shoes end up paying way more than retail on the secondary market.

It’s a shame that things turned out this way, yet again. Especially considering that the Bad Bunny release was only a few weeks ago. There was time to do a better job and it didn’t happen.

Hopefully, before Crocs does another one of these collabs, they’ll figure things out.
