SZA Shares New Crocs Collection
In honor of Mental Health Awareness Month, SZA shared her collaboration with Crocs in an attempt to focus on good mental health and self-care. The “Good Days” singer created two variations of footwear: The SZA x Crocs Classic Clog and The SZA x Crocs Classic Slide.
To kickstart Mental Health Awareness Month, SZA enlisted the help of three special friends who inspired the singer’s own mental health journey: Sage Adams, Yaris Sanchez, and Donté Colley. Her friends are strong mental-health advocates who all navigated their struggles differently.
SZA revealed that Adams tackled her mental-health issues through therapy, which inspired her to incorporate those same techniques into her own life. The singer also shared how Sanchez is spiritually and mentally strong, and Colley “keeps things high energy and motivates everyone while dancing through his struggles.”
Crocs and SZA’s Classic clog ($70) and slide ($40) are now available for draw through May 6th at 12:00 PM EST on Crocs’ webstore.

The SZA x Crocs Classic Clog highlights the singer’s personality and style. The woodgrain Crocs are topped with “Jibbitz™ charms that showcase the world of SZA—totems that keep her grounded, calm, and collective.” As SZA states, “A chill mind deserves chill shoes.”
The SZA x Crocs Classic Slides have the goal of maintaining positive energy. The style features bright Jibbitz™ charms meant to color one’s life with fun.
In an interview with The Cut, SZA expressed the importance of mental health, especially in the Black community. She stated, “And even mental health and expressing moments of struggle and depression can be seen as problematic. I feel like that stigma needs to be done away with. I feel we’re getting farther away from it as a Black community, but also we’re still plagued with unrealistic expectations of how we can be, how we can survive.”
Make sure you have ppl around you that put ur mental health n your interests first at all times .
