Back in December, Post Malone joined forces with Crocs for another exclusive collaboration – the Duet Max Clog II. The unisex clogs were designed in both pink and black colorways.
Along with the clogs, the new collection also included more custom charms. Crocs and Posty created a PostyCo Pink 3 Pack and PostyCo Black 3 Pack of Jibbitz™ charms for the new release. The clogs charms were available in a heart, a rubber duck, grapes and even a hammer.
Posty’s latest collab with Crocs officially went on sale on Tuesday, Dec. 8, 2020. Retailing for $59.99, the limited edition clogs sold out in under two hours after they went on sale.

Musicians On Call “brings live and recorded music to the bedsides of patients in healthcare facilities.” MOC president and CEO Pete Griffin hopes that the donation of these comfortable shoes will help frontline workers through the grueling days ahead.
“The stress of the pandemic on staff in all areas of the hospital has been unrelenting and we have been doing what we can to continue bringing them the joy of live music,” Griffin says. “We are so grateful to Post Malone and Crocs for joining us in providing even more relief when they need it the most through this generous donation. Thanks to them, caregivers at 70 hospitals nationwide will have the added support of their Crocs to help them through their day.”
This isn’t the first time Post Malone and Crocs have teamed up to give back to the community. Shortly following the release of the Duet Max Clog II, every student and faculty member at Post Malone’s old high school received a pair.

According to TMZ, the students and faculty of Grapevine High School received the clogs for free. A spreadsheet was reportedly sent around the school for staff and students to record their shoe size. Then, Crocs and Post Malone worked together to distribute the new clogs to every individual in the building.
