Crocs Pays Homage to Puerto Rico With This Special Classic Clog

Crocs is no stranger to releasing special pairs of footwear that effectively serve as love letters to specific countries and cultures. For its latest effort, the Colorado-based expert in comfort is celebrating Puerto Rico with an ornate Classic Clog.

The pair features a simple, white-colored Croslite™ upper that sets the stage for a medley of different details and Jibbitz™ charms that bring "La Isla del Encanto" to footwear-form. Midsoles boast a full-length recreation of Puerto Rico's original flag (1895), which sees a light blue take over the equilateral triangle instead of the navy blue officially recognized by the U.S. since 1952. The flag is stylized in a way that depicts it as blowing in the wind; its red and white stripes wrap around the Classic Clog's bottom-half.

Elsewhere, Crocs touches on other culturally-significant elements of Puerto Rico through eight different Jibbitz™ charms. An outline of the island appears in a gold shimmer, while the words "Wepa!" and "¡Toma!" also join the release (the latter accompanied by a chancleta (slide) in mid-air). A coquí figure also takes on a metallic finish and traditional Taíno art style, while a Bad Bunny-approved pava straw hat and white plastic chair take on charms forms, too. A pair of golden brown tostones round out the collection of detachable accessories.

Enjoy official photos of the Puerto Rico-inspired Crocs ahead. The Classic Clog should launch via Crocs.com soon, allowing Boris everywhere to display their cultural pride with comfort.
