Crocs teams with Concepts Dubai to present its second collection with Salehe Bembury as the footwear brand continues to expand its client base worldwide.
Since its founding in 1996, streetwear store Concepts has debuted a number of shoes, with its unique take on the design process reinventing the sneaker form. The retailer’s innovative design for the new Salehe Bembury x Crocs collaboration produces a botanic-inspired installation in its Dubai retail location. A glass-paneled walk-through terrarium is erected inside the store's core.
The limited-edition shoeboxes use wood, tree branch, and cactus motifs with Crocs and Concepts Dubai co-branding. Interested parties can visit the installation at 39 Al Safa St, Al Wasl, Dubai, or visit the Concepts Dubai’s website.
