Bad Bunny x Crocs Collab Sells Out In 16 Minutes

For the Bad Bunny fans hoping to snag their coveted pair of glow-in-the-dark, special edition Crocs, we hope you were one of the few who were able to make a purchase from the sold-out collection. International superstar Bad Bunny partnered with Crocs to release a limited edition shoe. These types of deals prove lucrative for brands—we just need to look to McDonald’s and their Cactus Jack collaboration with Travis Scott—and Bad Bunny’s fanbase came through to make sure his footwear deal was well worth it. Considering that it only took 16 minutes for Crocs to sell-out of the shoes priced at $59.99, it’s clear that the collab was a brilliant move.

“We appreciate everyone SHOWING UP today and congrats to those that scored a pair. For those who didn’t, stay tuned for many more surprises to come in Croctober 🔥 P.S. We don’t like bots either, which is why we use a combination of a queuing system and other fraud protection measures to protect against them. @badbunnypr,” Crocs wrote on their Instagram page.

Michelle Poole, the president of Crocs, also praised the Crocs-Bad Bunny collaboration. “He’s got a very daring style, a very unapologetic attitude and he’s also someone who loves Crocs,” she told the New York Times. “He’s been spotted wearing Crocs in live performances and in music videos.” Would you rock these?

Kyle Ashen’s sun-drenched recollection with new release “That Local Girl”

Kyle Ashen’s latest release, “That Local Girl,” is a gorgeous trip down memory lane, a country single that explores that golden glow of memory, like flipping through old photographs touched by salt air and summer sunlight. It’s warm, cinematic, and deeply relatable, a song about the kind of love story that never quite goes away, even as time moves on.

“That Local Girl” is filled with imagery that quickly takes the listener into a world they can walk right into. You got a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl on a boardwalk street by the ocean, a souped-up truck driving through town, neon lights reflecting off the ocean breeze, and the electric innocence of young love burning in the background.

But under all that cutesy trapping is something more than that, longing. Some people, some places that leave permanent marks on Kyle Ashen and us know that. What’s so brilliant about this song is that it marries those two ideas, making love and hometown memory feel beautifully inseparable. Sometimes you miss a person. And with that person, you miss an entire version of life. “That Local Girl” is more than a country love song from Kyle Ashen. He is a living postcard from the past, sun-faded, bittersweet, and glowing with feeling. A reminder that summers pass by, but some memories stay with us forever.
