As head of the Pollex Pod Collection, Salehe Bembury has introduced us to multiple new silhouettes, including the Pollex Juniper, his first “sneaker” design with Crocs. Now, months after official images of Apricot colorway emerged, Bembury has announced release information for the pair.
Containing a textured synthetic upper, we see perforations on the toe and heel, aiding in breathability and water flow. This synthetic material comes coated in an orange hue, which contrasts with the magenta shades of the lace set and the tan hues of the tongue, collar, and sockliner. Along the tongue, we see a co-branded Crocs and Salehe Bembury logo with Juniper branding front and center, with more branding for the duo on the textured footbed.
Final details on the upper include a pull tab on the heel and a blue TPU panel on the midfoot for added stability. Below this sits a light purple semi-translucent rubber sole unit, taking on Bembury’s famed 3D fingerprint design motif and wrapping up on the sidewall, heel, and toe.
The Salehe Bembury x Crocs Juniper Apricot will release on May 22, 2025, through Salehe Bembury’s Be A Spunge website. A wider release via Crocs and select retailers will come at a later date. Available in unisex sizing, the retail price is set at $140.
