Crocs Teams With Hello Kitty Once Again on New Clog
Crocs is kicking off 2024 with a collaboration featuring Hello Kitty.
Hello Kitty is a beloved cartoon character hailing from Japan created by entertainment company Sanrio in the mid-1970s. The footwear brand is taking the cartoon character’s likeness, interpreting her colors and iconic bow motif into a Classic Clog style.

The footwear, which will retail for $70 via Foot Locker, will feature white uppers, a sturdy red heel strap paying homage to the kitty’s bow and a bright blue midsole that mimics the look of Hello Kitty’s overalls.
Based on the images released as of now, the clog will come with bright red bows that wearers can attach to the shoe that aptly pay homage to the character. Finally, slightly raised cat ear detailing can be seen just above the Jibbitz holes.
Per usual, Crocs Classic Clogs are water-friendly, lightweight, quick drying and easy to clean. If Hello Kitty isn’t your thing, Crocs has a variety of Classic Clog styles within the brand’s inventory in a range of themes and colors.
Fans of the kitty can expect the shoes to drop in a variety of sizes via crocs.com on Jan. 17. The clogs will also be available for purchase via footlocker.com.
Crocs already had several other Hello Kitty styles under its belt, including one with Hello Kitty and Friends depicting the kitty alongside her companions Keroppi, Kuromi and Purin, among others.
Beyond Hello Kitty, Crocs has also recently collaborated with Fortnite to bring the brand’s beloved clog styles to the world of gaming with Crocs World Tycoon. The virtual experience created using Unreal Editor is updated and revamped for Fortnite players to enjoy.
The multiplayer four-week “Personalize Your Classics” campaign began on Dec. 12 and urges players to build design-centric worlds while completing special challenges. Similarly in 2023, Crocs also collaborated with Roblox to create a similar experience for video game and footwear fans.
