Salehe Bembury has announced the latest assortment for his Crocs Saru Clog.
The Salehe Bembury x Crocs Saru Clog will release this week in new “Geneva” blue and “Citrine” yellow colorways. For the capsule’s campaign, Bembury tapped star hip-hop producer The Alchemist, who also received an iteration of the KD 17 in June, as model.
Bembury and Crocs launched the Saru earlier this year as a hybrid of his Pollex Clog and the Classic Clog. The upper half comes with the familiar shape of the Classic Clog without a strap, while the sole takes on Bembury’s signature fingerprint motif. Both new iterations come clad entirely in their respective color.
The Saru is the third of four silhouettes Bembury and Crocs have released together since becoming partners in 2021. Coming off the success of the Pollex Clog and Slide, the former of which marked the first time the company let an outside designer create a new mold, Bembury and Crocs were recognized for the Collection of the Year the 2023 FN Achievement Awards. This year, they also launched the Juniper as their first-ever sneaker model.

“One of our core values is imaginative innovation,” former Crocs CEO Michelle Poole said in a feature story on their collection. “Salehe has brought a fresh perspective and enabled us to connect with new consumers.”
The Salehe Bembury x Crocs Saru “Geneva” and “Citrine” will release this Thursday, July 11, through Bembury’s Be a Spunge website. Pricing is set at $75.
