About

Lightning McQueen Crocs refers to a pair of shoes made by the Crocs company made in the likeness of the protagonist from Pixar's Cars, Lightning McQueen. Though they were introduced as shoes for children, their surprising popularity among adults made them a hot item. They have gone on sale twice, once in 2019 and once in 2021, and have quickly sold out both times.

Origin
