While Salehe Bembury has been hard at work on New Balance and Puma designs, his most famous partnership, Crocs on the Pollex Pod Collection, has been silent all of 2025. Until now, there were no teasers for what Bembury was cooking up with Crocs, but an Instagram post has finally changed this, as he’s given us a glimpse into the next Art Friends Thumbs Up Good Job release.
Starting in February 2024, Salehe would employ other artists and designers with whom he was close to producing a limited series of Crocs Pollex Clogs. The first project was with Futura, limiting the three-way collab to 1,000 pairs. Following this, Salehe tapped Jonas Wood for another limited-to-1,000 Pollex Clog.
