Crocs is launching its first-ever collaboration with outdoor apparel, accessories and footwear brand ROA. The collaborative effort pulls inspiration from Villaggio Eni, known as a vacation village, found in the heart of the Dolomites in Venice, Italy.
The collection features rest and recovery at its center along with an appreciation for the natural world, prioritizing those themes throughout the design process. It includes the All-Terrain Atlas and Mellow clogs, which will be available in a wide range of sizes.
Retailing for $80, the All-Terrain clog is molded and utilizes Crocs‘ patent Croslite™ technology, a cozy cell resin material that aims to maximize cushioning, cradling the feet. The footwear is thoughtfully designed, incorporating secure nylon webbed back straps along with plush rubber MTN outsoles fitted with topographical tread for a non-slip feel no matter the terrain.
The Mellow clog retails for $70 and also features a molded design along with a roomy fit. The footwear is enveloped with Crocs’ lightweight LiteRide technology, highlighting modernized tech on a sleek and sophisticated silhouette.

Like many of its other styles, Crocs and ROA’s clogs are water-friendly, lightweight, quick drying and easy to clean. It’s likely the shoe will come in a wide range of sizes.
This year alone, Crocs has dropped a myriad of unique silhouettes that often feature playful and inventive designs, expanding its footwear horizons in the process. Crocs has lent its iconic clog, boot and sandal silhouettes to many franchises including everything from video game franchises to food.
The brand has dipped its proverbial toes into the worlds of Pop-Tarts, Crayola, Kanghyuk, Disney, Lisa Frank, Minecraft, Ron English, Pokemon and Aries in the past. Through these collaborations, Crocs has proved that their silhouettes are extremely versatile.
Crocs and ROA’s vacation-inspired clogs will be available for purchase on Oct. 20 via roa-hiking.com and crocs.com.
