If you haven’t already heard, Hello Kitty marks her 50th anniversary this year. What better way to celebrate this milestone than with a host of ultra-kawaii collaborations? Besides teaming up with Casio to create the cutest Baby-G ever, and McDonalds Hong Kong to launch an adorable mahjong set, the iconic Sanrio character also joins paws with Crocs for a too-cute-to-miss footwear collection.
The three-piece capsule features signature Croc styles decked out in Hello Kitty colours and details for a fun celebration. Think lightweight, water-friendly and easy-to-clean designs for cuteness and comfort everywhere you go.

Firstly, the Hello Kitty Classic Clog sees the signature Crocs Comfort style in white, complete with iconic character details. These include kitty ears and whiskers around ventilation ports, a big red bow charm, and logo on the rivets and footbed. The slip-on style also features a glossy red heel strap and a thick blue band running all around. It comes in sizes for the whole family, from toddlers (SGD74.95) and kids (SG79.95) to adults (SGD109.95).
Then bring on the chunk with the Hello Kitty Stomp Slide (SGD149.95) with extra exaggerated soles. Never lose your sparkle with its 6.9-cm-high glittering lug sole in red. Its open-toe design also features character illustrations in red against a white background, complete with a distinctive Hello Kitty red bow Jibbitz charm.
Lastly, the Hello Kitty Siren Clog (SGD169.95) adds an extra apple in height with its chunky 9.2 cm heel cup. A feminine spin on the classic Crocs, this features a sparkly blue sole and unapologetically cute character graphics to match. Charms in the form of a Hello Kitty red bow and standing figure add a further dose of fun.
As with all Crocs designs that come with ventilation ports, the three styles offer opportunities for embellishments galore. Personalise your pair with Crocs’ wide selection of Jibbitz charms, including new Hello Kitty ones, which retail from SGD6.95 each to SGD26.95 for a pack of five.
Can’t wait to get in on the celebration? The Crocs x Hello Kitty 50th Anniversary collection is now available online via the Crocs e-store.
