While known for their comfy slip-on design, Crocs aren’t necessarily a go-to for hiking needs. However, in their newest design launch, Crocs is now catering to those looking for a bit more cushion after those adventurous hikes. With a hybrid sneaker-clog model, the new Crocs Echo Gum RO Clog is an easy way to give your feet a break, no matter the length of your trek. Featuring all the classic Crocs details, this hybrid clog also incorporates sneaker-inspired elements, making it perfect for any terrain. Whether you’re out camping or just looking to add more traction to your step, the new Crocs release is an ideal addition to your leisurewear. Boasting a comfortable and lightweight design, Crocs’ launch signals an expansion for the brand that looks to be known for more than just their classic clogs. 

Crocs’ newest lightweight clog is a camping essential

While the upper half of Crocs’ new Echo Gum RO Clog appears like any other clog in the brand’s lineup, the bottom half dons a new look. Created with the typical cushioned and lightweight Croslite material, this hybrid clog also features a LiteRide cushioned footbed for further comfort. Also included are the typical ventilation holes and signature backstrap. The new outsole replaces the previous Croslite material with a rubber-like material, providing enhanced traction and grip on uneven surfaces. Available now for $75 via Crocs’ webstore, the new clog is ideal for traveling through the elements while still keeping your feet safe and comfortable. Rock them on the streets or after your hikes, these Crocs are a must for keeping yourself comfortable all day.
