Fool Video: Is Crocs Too Cheap?

Recs

4

Shares of Crocs (Nasdaq: CROX) have fallen more than 80% over the last year. And while it’s been a rough year for other apparel retailers -- see American Eagle Outfitters (NYSE: AEO), Under Armour (Nasdaq: UA), and Zumiez (Nasdaq: ZUMZ) -- few have fallen as far and as fast as Crocs. Can Crocs regain its footing like Deckers Outdoor (Nasdaq: DECK) or is it another Heelys (Nasdaq: HLYS)? In this installment of "Fool Video," Motley Fool contributor Tim Beyers gives his take.

    Thanks for the video. I love my croc's. They are extremely comfortable. I don't have the original kind because I think they look too goofy. The flipflops are great. I even like the different colors. My kids have Crocs. We never would have even considered buying them an imitation. They are not that expensive. As a stock, I love how you can search online for hours and never find a fire sale for Crocs. I looked everywhere for 2 1/2 hours and finally paid full price. This stock is an easy double from here, in my opinion.
