Justin Bieber has announced a collaboration with Crocs
Some love them, others can't stand them. No matter which group you belong to, you probably know the legendary Crocs shoes. And now Justin Bieber has started a collaboration with them.
It's supposed to be inspired by Bieber's brand Drew house. It will include both classic clog shoes (canary yellow) and eight different badges (from a rainbow through flowers to the Drew house logo). The product line should be launched on October 13.
And we are mighty curious if the collaboration will be a success! Because since Justin dropped a hint about it on his Instagram in late September, Crocs shares have jumped 11 percent.
