"At first glance, the Steven Smith-designed Crocs Clog Mule is a departure from the brand's traditional look, introducing a bold sculptural aesthetic that feels like a natural evolution of Crocs' foam-dominated DNA. The shoe features a chunky midsole that elevates the design both literally and figuratively, giving it a more substantial profile that plays into Smith's history of bold, forward-thinking creations."
"The upper has been completely reworked with sculpted, oblong side panels and strategically placed ventilation cutouts that maintain Crocs' signature breathability while enhancing the futuristic look. A wavy outsole ties the entire silhouette together, creating a dynamic flow that blends the two-tone white and blue upper into a cohesive statement piece. The result is a design that feels part performance mule, part fashion sculpture-something that could live just as comfortably in a streetwear lookbook as it could at an art gallery."
Steven Smith collaborated with Crocs to produce a futuristic Clog Mule that transforms the classic foam clog into a sculptural, aggressive silhouette. The design incorporates a chunky midsole for elevated presence and sculpted oblong side panels with ventilation cutouts to retain breathability. A wavy outsole creates dynamic flow and a cohesive integration of a two-tone white and blue upper. The result merges performance mule functionality with fashion sculpture aesthetics, suitable for streetwear or gallery presentation. Smith's pedigree includes reviving the New Balance 550 and creating influential silhouettes, informing the bold, forward-thinking language applied to the Crocs collaboration.
