Crocs scooped up many of the Yeezy alumni after Ye’s departure from adidas, with the legendary Steven Smith headlining this group. Smith’s expertise and experience in the footwear industry, dating back to the ‘80s, have earned him the position of head of creative innovation for the Colorado-based clog makers.
Our first glimpse at Steven Smith’s output with Crocs came around five months ago when the man himself debuted the Crocs Ripple on his Instagram story. Fast forward to today, and the public has had a shot at this white-and-blue colorway via early drops in Vegas and Miami, a neon Lime Burst version at the Crocs SoHo store, and Smith continues to tease new Crocs models on his Instagram story. However, those looking for the original Crocs Ripple have only a short wait before the global release.
