OK, so I’m assuming that you own a pair of Crocs and you want to know how to put those jibbitz charms on your shoes. You’ve come to the right place!
To add Jibbits to your Crocs, it’s an easy process. Pick up your Crocs in one hand and a Jibbitz charm in the other hand. Line the back of the Jibbitz at a 45-degree angle to the hole you wish to house the Jibbitz. Push the Jibbitz charm into the whole and spin the charm while firmly pushing down toward the Crocs.
I find it easier to add the Jibbitz charm if I place the Crocs against a hard surface, like the floor or a table or counter. I also place my hand inside the Crocs to provide some resistance around the hole that I’m pressing the Jibbitz into.

If you want to remove the Jibbitz charm, then you basically do the same thing. I have the Crocs on a hard surface, I place my hand inside the Crocs and push up on the bottom of the Jibbitz charm. With my other hand, I grab the Jibbitz on top and pull and twist. The Jibbitz comes off quite easily.

You’re here, so I’m going to assume that you know what Jibbitz charms are, but… in case you don’t?
Jibbitz charms are little images, sayings, letters, characters, and some sorts of pop culture to be placed on the holes of the Crocs shoes. With 13 holes on each pair, you can even put several creative designs on your Crocs Classic. You can add beautiful styles and designs of Jibbitz charms on its holes to showcase your hobbies, latest obsession, or sense of humor on your feet.
Originally Jibbitz was a separate company owned by Ocean Minded and Crocs purchased Jibbitz in 2006. Today, you can purchase Jibbitz charms through Crocs or buy Jibbitz on Amazon, but there are also many other manufacturers of these charms and some really creative people on Etsy who create new and unique Jibbitz charms every day!
