Crocs, the foam clog brand that has gone from divisive to downright iconic, is taking its next big leap—straight out of your closet and onto your phone. Partnering with Seoul’s techwear label SLBS (Slashby Slash), Crocs has launched a smartphone case that reimagines the brand’s most recognizable features: perforated uppers, chunky straps, and, of course, the much-loved Jibbitz charms.
What was once a symbol of cozy footwear is now transforming into a bold phone accessory—half protective case, half fashion statement.
A Techwear Twist on Comfort
The SLBS × Crocs smartphone case first debuted for the Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra and has now expanded to newer iPhone models. Crafted from soft-touch TPU, the design mimics the look and feel of Crocs’ ventilated upper while adding a detachable, adjustable strap for extra functionality—perfect for streetwear lovers who treat their phones like the ultimate everyday accessory.
And, staying true to Crocs’ playful personality, the colour palette leans bright and cheerful: pastel mint, blush pink, baby blue, ivory, and the ever-classic black. Think casual comfort meets Seoul-ready street cool.
Crocs Customization at Its Core
Here’s where things get really Crocs-y: the case is fully compatible with Jibbitz charms. That means users can swap in Mickey Mouse, emoji icons, or even “I ♥” trinkets, just like they would on their clogs. With up to 19 customization slots—15 on the back and 4 on the strap—the possibilities for personalization are endless.
Phones are already a reflection of identity, but this takes it to the next level. Your phone case isn’t just a shield; it’s a mood board.
For Crocs, this is more than just a quirky design—it’s a savvy lifestyle move. The collab positions the brand squarely in Gen Z’s culture of hyper-personalization, where phones aren’t just tools, but fashion pieces in their own right. Selling through Korean fashion powerhouses Musinsa and 29CM, the cases come with international shipping, signalling a global appetite for playful design crossovers.
It’s proof that Crocs isn’t afraid to expand its empire beyond footwear, turning even everyday tech into a canvas for self-expression.
Much like the clogs themselves, the case is sparking mixed reactions—half delight, half disbelief. Fans praise it as a fun, tactile way to showcase personality, while sceptics can’t help but poke fun at the idea of carrying a Croc in your pocket.
But here’s the thing: nobody’s ignoring it. And in the attention economy, that’s exactly the point.
