In under a year, Crocs has managed to experience a meteoric rise to the top of the heap of most coveted, hyped shoes on the planet. It’s technically not even a sneaker, yet here we are, showing you one of the most eye-catchings pieces of footwear that we’ve seen in recent memory.
Credit that all to Salehe Bembury, whose golden touch has brought in an avant-garde aesthetic with Versace, New Balance, and now Crocs, the brand that has effortlessly possessed a reputation of making its slip-on rubber shoes corny and cool.
Recently launching in a solid trio of Crocodile green, Stratus white, and Urchin grey, the Pollex Clogs are now poised for another wave of colorways later during the Summer/Fall season. These preview images reveal a hazardous orange, a burning crimson red, and a cooling blue/lavender blend. Needless to say, all three will likely be heavily coveted when the eventually release. If these are too bright for you, there’s a black Pollex Clog dropping later this year as well.
The Pollex Clog is very much standing toe to toe with Kanye West’s Yeezy Foam Runner as the must-have moc/mule/sandal/slip-on of 2022, and this next batch might give Bembury’s model the edge. Stay tuned for updates.
