Crocs Inc. has partnered with British designer Christopher Kane for a collection of limited edition Swiftwater Sandals embellished with rhinestones. The company made the announcement during London Fashion Week, which is now taking place. “Working with Christopher reinforces our belief that Crocs’ products are incredibly relevant in today’s style arena,” said Crocs Senior Vice President of Global Product and Marketing Michelle Poole. “This collaboration is particularly exciting as we expand beyond our classic silhouette into our popular Swiftwater Sandal style.” Kane has presented his version of Crocs shoes in the past, including a tiger-print pair that are sold in Crocs stores and at select retailers. Crocs shares are up 0.2% in Tuesday trading, and up 34.6% for the year so far. The S&P 500 index is up 12% for 2017 to date.
