Crocs x Dingyun Zhang.

After a successful debut at Paris Fashion Week in September, Crocs is unveiling its first-ever collaboration with visionary designer Dingyun Zhang. The collection merges Crocs’ signature comfort with a touch of futuristic elegance, resulting in a streetwear-inspired silhouette that is anything but ordinary.

The Crocs Diffuser introduces a revolutionary new design, combining the iconic Crocs DNA with the sleek, aerodynamic aesthetic of high-performance Bugatti sports cars. The result is a pair of shoes that embody both speed and style, with a futuristic edge.

For this collaboration, Dingyun Zhang reimagines a classic Crocs model—the Swiftwater Sandal—giving it a sculptural silhouette with flowing, organic lines. The new design captures the essence of motion and energy, with sleek curves and a dynamic form that feels both modern and cutting-edge.

“I wanted to reimagine Crocs as a vehicle for progress,” says Dingyun Zhang. “The Crocs Diffuser is a tribute to speed and movement, taking comfort and style beyond the ordinary. It's about pushing boundaries.”

The campaign behind the collaboration has been brought to life by the Berlin-based creative collective Sucuk and Bratwurst, who have captured Zhang’s vision in a striking visual narrative. The photography and film work amplify the futuristic concept, placing the Diffuser in a world that feels as innovative as the design itself.

The Crocs Diffuser will be available from December 12, 2024, for $85.00 on crocs.com and dingyunzhang.com. This limited-edition release marks a bold new chapter in the partnership between Crocs and Dingyun Zhang.
