Who knew that luxury car makers would be concerned with hideously unattractive footwear? Not us.

Turns out in Germany, they most certainly are. Our sibling site, GoingConcern.com, has discovered a lawsuit in Germany where Porsche is suing Crocs over use of the word “Cayman.” (That’s the name of the style pictured to the left. This is a Porsche Cayman.)

We have to agree with their story in that there’s got to be a fairly low level of confusion as to which “Cayman” one is talking about.

But we cannot lie and say we don’t advocate anything that chips away at the company behind these fashion abominations. We might be able to handle Fit Flops, but Crocs…never.

“Flip-flops, Crocs, ripped jeans, denim shorts, chipped nails, exposed lingerie, and makeup experiments.” - Meredith Melling-Burke’s list of fashion don’ts for her interns, from Style.com.

What’s worse than the pun in this title?

The fact that Crocs has released their own phone accessory.

It’s called the Croc-o-Dial (seriously!) and it’s designed to protect your phone from getting knocked around and breaking.

The case will retail for about $30 and also has a flat-backed panel to hold credit cards, drivers licenses, and notes of apology for buying anything connected to Crocs.

Fortunately, it’s only available in Europe…

For now.
