The hottest shoes of 2022 are now an even hotter Prime Day bargain

When it comes to the hottest footwear of the last decade, shoes from the Nike/Adidas duopoly – Air Force 1s, Dunk Lows, Yeezys and so on – have dominated the conversation. The last 12 months, though, has seen a once much-maligned brand rise like a phoenix from the ashes to rank proudly among the biggest names in contemporary fashion. 

Yes, ladies and gentlemen: Crocs – the colorful foam clogs made famous by young children and elderly gardeners the world over – are officially the biggest shoes of 2022 (just ask Justin Bieber or Pharrell Williams), and Amazon has seen fit to discount a huge swathe of the brand’s range as part of its annual Prime Day deals event.
