Crocs is a multi-faceted brand. The kings of the licensed pop-culture clogs are also responsible for big furry boots, Salehe’s molded Pollex line, and a new Steven Smith-designed Ripple slip-on coming soon. The brand is also getting into more sophisticated walking shoes with the new Gallery Shoe silhouette, and after a debut pack in muted earth tones, Crocs is keeping things classy with a new triple-black colorway.
The Crocs Gallery Shoe Black keeps the monochrome design of the first two pairs, covering the entire shoe in black. The moccasin-toed upper is made with hairy suede in a pale black, with a darker black on the ankle collar. The chunky, split-level sole is also done in black, with textured dots covering the top half of the midsole.
Crocs The Gallery Shoe Black
The brainchild of Crocs Special Projects designer Ryan Forsyth, the Gallery Shoe is a semi-dressy silhouette perfect for, as the name suggests, casual nightlife events like art gallery openings. With easily wearable color options for the first few releases, the shoe is more than holding its own amongst an industry-wide push towards dressier silhouettes.
The Crocs Gallery Shoe Black will be released November 6, 2025 through Crocs and select retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $100. To keep up with everything new from Crocs, download the Sole Retriever mobile app.
