Western Hydrodynamic Research, also known as WHR is a community brand based in California, and its latest project involves the collaborative work of Crocs as the duo launches their own version of the Classic Clogs. The shoes are engineered to tackle different types of terrain, ensuring that it is able to stand up against the unpredictable weather conditions of the outdoors.
To celebrate the new shoe, the two will host workshops that will be running from February 5th to the 11th. The mobile workshop will be traveling around starting from Los Angeles and ending up in San Francisco with stops that are planned in between to give fans a chance to purchase their own clog and custom their limited edition shoe.
