NextImg:I left my Crocs in my hot car — I was horrified by what happened

The heat Croc’d her world.

A woman on TikTok is going viral for making the “rookie mistake” of leaving her Crocs in a hot car.

Cecilia, who goes by @literallycecilia on the platform, claimed that her pair of “brand-new platform Crocs” “shrunk unevenly” due to the heat.

Disappointed, she showed viewers the still-tagged black clogs and the right one appears to be smaller than the left.

“@Crocs wanna hook a girl up,” Cecilia captioned the video, which was uploaded Sunday and already has 844,500 views.

The Post has contacted a rep for Crocs for comment.

However, the Crocs FAQ section of its website does advise enthusiasts: “Exposure to extreme heat, sun, dishwashers, washing machines, or hot cars can cause the shoes to shrink or warp.”

The woman claimed her Crocs were brand new.

One wikiHow user in the same predicament claimed that one can “unshrink” their Crocs by placing them in boiling water, putting them in the dryer, or using a hair dryer.

But Cecilia wasn’t the only person who recently learned that the rubber, holey kicks don’t play nice with the heat.

“I KNEW MINE SHRUNK NO ONE BELIEVED ME,” one person claimed.

“I have never ran so fast to my car,” another dodged a bullet.

“Might be leaving mine in the car because they are too big,” one viewer deemed the unfortunate incident a life hack.

Luckily, in a follow-up video, Cecilia claimed she emailed Crocs and they are sending her a new pair.

“Good to know you’re covered even if you’re just stupid,” she added.

Meanwhile, one man — also known as the “Croc king” may know a thing or two about caring for his Crocs collection boasts more than 2,000 pair.
