CHITO and Crocs have linked up for the Crafted Clog, and it’s now available to shop on Complex.
CHITO, the artist and designer known for his airbrushed dog characters and collaborations with brands like Crocs and Givenchy, has built one of the most recognizable visual identities in streetwear. His work centers on two recurring canine figures — the Finesse Pup and the Lookout Pup — illustrated characters that have appeared across murals, apparel, and footwear throughout his career. For this partnership with Crocs, those same dogs take center stage.
Buy the Crafted Clog
The Crafted Clog itself is worth understanding before getting into CHITO’s take. Crocs introduced the silhouette as part of its EXP collection, a line focused on more experimental and unconventional designs. Unlike the Classic Clog, the Crafted Clog replaces the brand’s signature perforations with a full textile canvas upper, offering collaborators a cleaner surface to work with. Crocs first spotlighted the model in a 2025 campaign with actress Lola Tung, and this CHITO collaboration marks the first time the style has been handed to an outside creative.
CHITO’s version of the silhouette leans fully into his signature aesthetic. The “White” colorway features a long-haired faux fur upper, translating his airbrushed pet motif into a tactile, three-dimensional design. The left shoe is finished with a Finesse Pup metal logo, while the right features the Lookout Pup.
The heel strap includes four Jibbitz™ charm holes for personalization and is stamped with a metal plate bearing CHITO’s name, serving as a mark of authenticity. A Croslite™ outsole provides durability and support, while the pivoting heel strap ensures a secure fit. The clog also features Crocs’ signature comfort system, offering lightweight, flexible, 360-degree cushioning.
