The start of a new NBA season has a way of kickstarting a new “sneaker season” right along with it, as every brand with skin in the game gets its ducks in a row with new signature models, special releases, and whatever else might make a splash once the league reclaims center stage. With opening night now a week away, Crocs and the NBA are kicking things off with team-inspired clogs and a league-wide spread of Jibbitz charms.
The five teams chosen to receive their own pairs largely reflect some of the league’s biggest markets: the Los Angeles Lakers, Boston Celtics, Chicago Bulls, Golden State Warriors, and of course, the defending champion New York Knicks. Each gets its own Crocband Clog, which differs from the Classic Clog with a new heel strap featuring fabric at the joining points. Team branding runs along the sidewalls, while the colorways themselves take after each respective franchise. Co-branding lands on the strap and footbed of each pair, while Jibbitz packs inspired by retro team iconography round out the package.
Arriving alongside the clogs is a whopping collection of Jibbitz charms spanning all 30 teams, ranging from simple $2 logo charms to $20 five-packs featuring premium metal Jibbitz. Tap HERE to view the full spread.
The NBA x Crocs collection launches October 20th, 2026, opening night of the 2026/27 season, via Crocs and select retailers. The clogs retail for $75 a pop. Keep scrolling for official images of each.
