Marbled Slip-On Summer Slides

Satisfy Joins Crocs to Create the Mellow Slide Silhouette

— July 19, 2023 — Fashion
Satisfy works in collaboration with Crocs once again and this time, it comes in the form of the Mellow Slide. The shoes are defined by their marbled look and soft feel to deliver comfort over long periods of time. Notably, every single slide is detailed with its own unique marbled pattern for a one-of-a-kind look.

The Mellow Slides are also crafted from LiteRide, which is a material that is developed to comfortably hold the foot and aid with recovery during on-foot activities over long time spans. It is described to feel like a cloud sensation, highlighting the fact that comfort was a large focus of its design process. It is launching online at Satisfy on July 21st.
