Crocs rose from goofy clogs for wearing around the house to true cultural phenomenon. While their aesthetics remain pretty divisive, this concept collaboration with NASA brings the foam shoes into a whole new perspective.

Designed with the help of AI by Vadim Sadovski, we see a range of Crocs that feel ready for their Lunar debut.

From high-tech, 3D-printed boots to classic Crocs with a Lunar surface texture, the concepts take advantage of Crocs’ holes to fit in with the moon’s craters. Crocs’ flexible Croslite material has a similar rubber-like look and feel to PVC patches, the durable molded patches commonly used by military units and tactical organizations for gear exposed to moisture, dirt, and the outdoors.

Whether you’d wear them or not, it’s a pretty compelling collaboration.
