20 Years of Comfort: The Core & Co Brands Family Story

When you walk into our store at Shop 18, 99 Bloomfield Street in Cleveland, Queensland, you're not just stepping into a shoe shop — you're stepping into over two decades of family history, community connection, and a genuine passion for comfortable footwear.

Where It All Began

Core & Co Brands was founded with a simple belief: everyone deserves footwear that feels as good as it looks. As a proud, family-owned Australian business, we've been serving the Cleveland community and beyond for more than 20 years. What started as a local dream has grown into a trusted destination for Crocs lovers across Queensland and Australia.

A Family Business, Through and Through

Being family-owned means everything to us. It means we know our customers by name. It means we genuinely care about finding the right fit — not just for your feet, but for your lifestyle. Whether you're a tradie looking for all-day comfort, a parent chasing after little ones, or someone who simply refuses to compromise on ease and style, we're here for you.

Over the years, we've watched kids grow up in Crocs, seen families return season after season, and built friendships that go far beyond a simple transaction. That's the Core & Co difference.

Why We Love Crocs

We chose to specialise in Crocs because we believe in the product wholeheartedly. Crocs are lightweight, durable, easy to clean, and — most importantly — incredibly comfortable. Add in the fun of Jibbitz charms to personalise your pair, and you've got footwear that's as unique as the person wearing it.

From classic clogs to sandals, boots, and beyond, we stock a wide range of styles and sizes to suit every member of the family. And with Jibbitz packs to mix and match, the creative possibilities are endless.

Proudly Serving Cleveland & Queensland

We're more than just a shop — we're part of the Cleveland community. Located in the heart of the Redlands, we're your local go-to for Crocs footwear in Queensland. Whether you're popping in from Cleveland, Capalaba, Redland Bay, or further afield, we'd love to see you in store.

You can also shop our full range online at coreandcobrands.com.au and follow us on Instagram @coreandcobrands and Facebook for the latest arrivals, styling tips, and exclusive offers.

Thank You for 20+ Years

To every customer who has walked through our doors, shopped with us online, or recommended us to a friend — thank you. You are the reason we do what we do. Here's to the next 20 years of comfort, community, and Crocs.
