Last year, Crocs and Balenciaga teamed up for an unlikely collaboration debuted at Paris Fashion Week that introduced a high-platform version of the comfort-focused shoe adorned with stylish pin accessories—now, the footwear brand has unveiled its latest style, dubbed the Crocs Cyprus V Heel.
This new style from Crocs is touted as "a pair of casual and comfortable heels," which gives a significant amount of lift over the brand's most well-known flat shoe models, as well as more aesthetically pleasing details, as the design incorporates an elegant strap and metal hardware.
While the new shoe style from Crocs has quickly sold out on its own website, the heels may be purchased from Amazon in all-black, all-white and white/pink colorways on Amazon.
