Krispy Kreme x Crocs Clogs—Release Date, Early Access And How To Buy

Crocs just glazed the game. After teasing fans with a donut-line reveal, Krispy Kreme and Crocs have officially announced their first-ever collab — and it’s already looking like the wildest drop of the summer. Krispy Kreme gave fans a taste of what was coming with a teaser the day before — a Croc sliding down the donut line in place of a pastry.

Launching August 5, the limited-edition Krispy Kreme x Crocs Classic Clog features a fresh-out-the-glazer vibe with oversized donut charms, a Hot Light Jibbitz, and interchangeable toe caps that let you choose your flavor: chocolate or strawberry with sprinkles. Yes, really.

A collab where comfort meets crave

More than a year in the making, this isn’t just a Crocs colorway — it’s a full-blown dessert crossover. The base clog channels Krispy Kreme’s Original Glazed in both color and sheen. The heel strap is stamped with the Krispy Kreme logo, and each pair comes in a custom co-branded box inspired by the chain’s iconic dozens box.

Fans can also grab a separate five-pack of Jibbitz charms that includes mini donuts, the Krispy Kreme paper hat, the logo, and a dozens box. It’s the kind of merch drop that’s both collectible and unapologetically weird — in the best way.

“Fans of both of our brands expect the unexpected and this collab certainly is next-level,” said Krispy Kreme’s Chief Brand and Product Officer Alison Holder. “We can’t wait to see Krispy Kreme x Crocs ‘clog’ social media.”

Crocs’ Chief Brand Officer Terence Reilly added, “We’re serving up style that’s glazed with personality and sprinkled with style. Because when it comes to self-expression, we ‘doughnut’ hold back.”

Early access and a donut-themed bonus dozen

The clogs officially drop August 5 at Crocs stores, crocs.com, and select partners. But if you want early access, you can snag a pair one day early on August 4 by visiting a participating Krispy Kreme location and scanning the in-store Crocs QR code.

To sweeten the launch even further, Krispy Kreme is releasing a specialty donut dozen from August 4 to 10 that mirrors the collaboration’s colorways: Original Glazed, Chocolate Iced with Sprinkles, and Strawberry Iced with Sprinkles. It’s a visual nod to the toe caps — and yes, they’re available for pickup, delivery, or in-shop orders while supplies last.

And on August 9, Crocs fans can walk in and get a free Original Glazed just for showing up in their Crocs. No purchase necessary.

Why fans love it

Crocs has become the king of unexpected food collabs — from KFC to Hidden Valley Ranch to Pringles — but this one might be the most wearable (and winnable) yet. The custom caps give the shoe an edge of interactivity, and the tie-in with Krispy Kreme’s iconic visual brand makes it instantly recognizable.

Meanwhile, Krispy Kreme has been leaning into maximalist, Gen Z-friendly marketing with everything from cereal mashups to doughnut-themed holidays. This clog drop only amplifies that energy.

Whether you’re buying them for the novelty, the donut-core aesthetic, or just because you live in Crocs, this collab is pure comfort food — for your feet.
