It seems like Crocs is never not ideating and executing a new collaboration these days, and one of its latest is a delightful, heart-warming continuation of a partnership that started in 2023. This spring, Crocs once again teamed up with the viral, Sanrio-owned Hello Kitty franchise to transfer the anthropomorphic cat’s cheerful-and-kind personality onto its bestselling Classic Clog and Classic Platform Clog styles.

Four shoes make up the recent drop, including the Hello Kitty and Friends Classic Platform Clog, which exudes coquettish energy via its gingham-printed upper; lace-trimmed sole; charms that capture the spirit of Kitty White’s friendships; other adornments like pearly beads and plushies; plus Kitty’s own visage engraved onto the hardware that connects the backstrap to the rest of the slip-on. Not a fan of that 1.6-inch rise? Turn to the shoe’s Hello Kitty and Friends Pastel Classic Clog counterpart instead, featuring Crocs’ hero silhouette, three fixed charms depicting lovable Sanrio critters like My Melody and Keroppi, and space for 23 more.

In lieu of a checkered print, you’ll discover illustrations of Kitty’s crew dotting the clog throughout, making this one-ounce wonder the ideal maximalist addition to your springtime outfits. And should you want to match with your mini-me, Crocs has you covered in that department as well. Encouraging your child’s immersion into kawaii culture from a young age is now made easy, what with the new Kids’ Hello Kitty and Friends Pastel Classic Clog (a miniaturized version of the aforementioned Hello Kitty–coded Classic Clog, made for kiddos ages five and over) and Toddlers’ Hello Kitty and Friends Pastel Classic Clog for ages one through five — the latter swapping multiple Jibbitz for only two oversized shoe charms of Kitty at her finest, instantly recognizable bow and all.

Before you add those fresh releases to cart and promptly check out, you’d be wise to collect all of the Hello Kitty x Crocs Jibbitz arrivals (catch ’em all, like Pokémon: fittingly, another globally beloved kawaii franchise). Especially worth your time are the collaborative, Swarovski crystal–encrusted charms spotlighting laidback Golden Retriever Pompompurin, pink-cheeked pup Cinnamoroll, and Pochacco, another canine sidekick that likes taking part in Kitty’s super-cute adventures. The Swarovski Jibbitz are all $49.99, which is not too high of a price to pay for their luxury, style-amplifying looks and lightheartedness — a rare balance indeed.

Worried your little one will misplace the crystal beauts by fidgeting with them too much? The collab’s slightly less upscale charms include the enamel-based Elevated Five-Pack, in which our favorite cat is joined by her day-ones, and the under-$10 Plush Hello Kitty, which will bestow a pop of color and texture upon your (or their!) more basic Crocs models.
