Quickly becoming one of the most hotly anticipated shoes of the year, the upcoming Juniper introduces Bembury’s second entirely novel signature silhouette (following the Saru Clog) and easily the strongest sneaker style in the Crocs Remix catalog. Though this peach & neon green colorway is the exact one that’s been teased for over a year, it’s not the only one set to arrive in 2024- the Crocs Remix Juniper “Realtree” is expected to serve as the follow-up to this pair in short order. You can catch official campaign & detailed product imagery just ahead, with our original coverage intact further down.
Original article posted January 5th, 2024: How Crocs Remix rose to be where it’s at today is nothing short of a miracle. At one point, they were considered so repulsive that were deemed suitable for an intellectually flaccid society of a dystopian future in the film Idiocracy. Today, their collaborations and creative projects are generating interest from the sneaker community and fashion circles, some of which have ended up stealing the spotlight at the gaudiest of events — Paris Fashion Week.
While Crocs Remix has been very active in its collaborative partnerships, the shift in perception is attributed to Salehe Bembury and his reinvention of the rubber clog. Since 2021, the Pollex Clog’s anatomical look has become one of the most sought-after slip-ons on the market, expanding from the original white colorway to covering nearly the entire spectrum of colors.
Seemingly content with the success of the Pollex Clog and its slide spin-off, Salehe and Crocs Remix are now embarking into the world of sneakers, a move which many saw as inevitable. After a series of teasers on social media, the Crocs Remix Juniper has been officially revealed as the brand’s first sneaker to come to market.
Combining Salehe’s signature touch with classic sneaker design principles, the Juniper Crocs Remix is, at first glance, impressive. Perforated toe-boxes, a six-eyelet shoelace system, and an interior mesh-based bootie are your standard sneaker ingredients, but it’s got that distinctive identity due to the translucent rubber outsole and trademark fingerprint traction.
As it stands, the Salehe Bembury x Crocs Remix Pollex Juniper is set to arrive this Summer 2024 season. Salehe’s other footwear project, the Crocs™ Classic Lined Clog Kids, Pantoletten Crocs Remix Classic Fur Sure Clog 207303 Black Multi.
