BEAMS and Crocs Join Forces on a Set of Footwear Designs

— April 14, 2020 — Fashion
BEAMS and Crocs work in collaboration once again on a set of clog designs that are inspired by the look of fishing vests for the warmer seasons. The models feature two silhouettes in total and take on a militaristic aspect in terms of design, spotlighted by its muted tonal palette with details that are fully functional.

There are tones of beige and gray for a neutral finish throughout and it informs the bespoke models. Additional details include the D-rings as well as the mesh and straps that nod to the cargo theme. The ripstop toe box also has a zipper for additional storage options before it is rounded out with bright orange pull tabs on the adjustable ankle straps.
