Use your tongs to gently stir the Crocs in the water so that both shoes get even coverage. If your Crocs can’t both fit into the pot at the same time, boil them one at a time.

This is a great method to use if you need to shrink the strap on your Crocs, too. Direct the hair dryer directly at the strap to target it.

If you’re pressed for time or need your Crocs to shrink a lot, try leaving them in a hot car with the windows rolled up. Crocs shrink very quickly in a hot car, so be sure to check on them every 20 minutes or so.

Place the Crocs in boiling water for another 5 minutes. Throw the Crocs back in the dryer for 5 minutes. Heat the Crocs with your blow dryer for another 10 minutes. Put the shoes in direct sunlight for another 20 minutes.
