Crocs is bringing its chunky clogs a feline makeover, thanks to its latest collaboration with Lil Nas X.
The “Industry Baby” musician’s first collaborative shoe with the FNAA-winning brand — his first with Crocs after being named one of its brand ambassadors in June — has just been released, bringing a whimsical and slinky take to its popular Mega Crush clogs. The resulting $110 style features the same round-toed silhouette with thick, ridged platform soles, albeit covered in fuzzy brown faux shearling.
The paneled take on the Mega Crush clogs includes a black foam base, complete with textured insoles; however, Lil Nas’ take on the shoe covers its signature allover holes, creating a slipper-like silhouette that’s ideal for colder temperatures. The pair is complete with adjustable gray faux shearling-covered straps, cinched by gleaming silver metal plugs embossed with the rapper’s signature angular logo.

The shoes themselves drew inspiration from Lil Nas X’s own cats, which have also inspired their accompanying Jibbitz charms. Though the rapper’s $20 five-pack of rubber charms cannot be inserted into the holes of his own collaborative clogs, the whisker-shaped charms — which each sport a different nose color — can be added to any standard perforated Crocs shoe for a quirky feline statement.
Lil Nas X’s collaboratie shoes with Crocs marks the brand’s latest co-branded release in 2023. In recent months, the label has dropped a range of collaborative shoes, collections and limited-edition products with brands including Levi’s, MCM and Aespa, among others.
Crocs x Lil Nas X’s Mega Crush clogs can be purchased now on Crocs’ website.
