This fleece-lined Crocs Shorty transforms comfort into cold-weather luxury

Crocs upgrades its traditional clog with luxurious new details

Although it might be hard to equate a Crocs clog with luxury footwear, the brand has slowly worked to upgrade its lineup to appear much more elevated. With recent collaborations with brands like Barbour, the Crocs brand has added sophisticated details to its products that make them seem much more luxurious. Now, the brand is taking matters in-house with a new release that takes the Classic Clog and turns it into a winter-ready luxury slipper you can wear outside. While the latest release utilizes the traditional and signature clog silhouette from Crocs, subtle upgrades have elevated the design into a slipper that works for almost any cold-weather environment. Just in time for the start of the colder months, these lined Crocs bring an elevated style that many aren’t used to seeing from Crocs until now.

Throughout its history, New Balance has been home to many iconic silhouettes that remain as trendsetters to this day. One of the lineups that continues to deliver premium craftsmanship and quality is the brand’s New Balance Numeric collection. In its most recent release, the line has reintroduced its famed 770 silhouette. A once cross-trainer, the 770 has gone through various phases, including a stint as a popular tennis shoe. Now, New Balance has reengineered the sneaker to embrace a brand new group, the skateboarding community. Around thirty years after its initial launch, the 770 returns with the same retro look of the ‘90s but with a brand new set of features that make it ideal for skaters and non-skaters alike.
