Crocs Collaborations and Brand Growth // Pamela Anderson’s Crocs & Beyonce Homage // Disney x Pixar Cars, Lightning McQueen x Crocs Clogs Re-release via Sneakin’ Online
Crocs, the comfortable (mostly) unisex clog shaped footwear, inspired by outdoor casual use, grew significantly in 2020, as a result of the… well you know.
As of 2024, the brand continues to thrive. Its stock price has more has more than doubled from $46.40 four years ago, now ranging between between $100 and $187.00 quarterly, making it a billion-dollar company.
Crocs’ popularity has led to numerous collaborations with top entertainers, franchises, and fashion designers like the latest online exclusive Wicked Glinda Siren Clog, inspired by the film Wicked, starring Ariana Grande and Cynthia Erivo, releasing in theaters on November 22nd.
Other collaborations include; Simone Rocha, Karol G, McDonald’s, Hello Kitty, Post Malone, Saweetie x Hidden Valley Ranch, Barbie, Salehe Bembury, Diplo, Balenciaga, and many more.
The Balenciaga Croc Rubber Rain Boots seen on everyone from Kanye West to Pamela Anderson dropped in 2021 and are still a fashion favorite today.
Coincidently, I binged Pamela’s: Garden of Eden, on Hulu, last month. In the reality series, Pamela showcases her gardening, and home renovation expertise, in the family casted show, and I peeped Anderson rocking the rain boots, as well as, another favorite from the Balenciaga x Crocs collection; the Croc Madame Heels!
When I tell you my jaw almost dropped when I saw them…. I didn’t even realize the shoes were a collaboration piece…. I’m just a sucker for a cute and sexy clog!
Anderson, (set to star in the upcoming movie The Last Show Girl, alongside Jamie Lee Curtis, Dave Bautista, Jason Schwartzman, and Directed by Gia Coppola), effortlessly wore the white clogs, with a white dress in one episode, and white linen pants and a t-shirt, in another. While watching, I thought to myself, “You better werrrk!”
A look so casual but chic - any frame could’ve easily been placed in a lifestyle magazine and the products would’ve sold immediately.
Love, love, loved the Crocs aesthetic with the black high-heel. The white outfit was the creme de la creme!
Shout out Pamela Anderson. Beyonce paid homage to the icon a few days ago, posting a series of photos and a music video for her song Bodyguard (Beywatch), dressed as Anderson during different entertainment eras. Taking inspiration from Anderson’s most polarizing years as a 90’s Pop Culture Icon.
Queen Bey transformed herself into Anderson during her days as an actress on Baywatch, her appearance at the 1999 MTV Awards during her relationship with Tommy Lee, and her iconic role in 1996 Film, Barb Wire.
See the sexy visuals below along with Ms. Anderson’s Instagram story repost .
Love to see Bey doing what she does best, but let’s not get off topic… back to these Crocs and collabs.
While shopping for new Fall clogs on Sneakin’; a streetwear and footwear online retailer, I came across the Crocs ‘Stomp’ with fur lining, and the platform Crocs ‘Siren’. Both of which I absolutely love in the Brown/Burgundy, and White color ways….
I came across a few other cute collaborative collections and designs for men, women and children.
Like these Crocs x ‘Lightning McQueen’ Classic Clogs, a re-released collaboration inspired by the Cars Movie franchise.
The franchise is a fan favorite for adults and kids alike, with many awaiting the 4th installment of the animated series.
