Released on Thursday (March 23), the Dreamville x Crocs collab includes the Classic Clog ($69.99), Classic Slides ($39.99) and 13 Jibbitz charms ($49.99). The charms are designed to look like chenille letters and spell out the word “dream,” along with pennant banner charms showcasing the Dreamville logo and celebrating cities such as Atlanta, North Carolina, Los Angeles, Washington, D.C., Chicago and New York.
“We took a spin at the Classic Clog,” Dreamville tweeted on Thursday along with a video introducing the new collection, which is available online at Crocs.com, Dreamville and Amazon in women’s sizes 6-12 and men’s sizes 4-13.
If you wear a half size, Crocs recommends sizing down for the best fit. Crocs clogs and slides feature the brand’s signature lightweight and comfortable design with ventilation ports that add breathability and help shed water and debris quickly.
The Dreamville x Crocs collab comes just in time for the annual Dreamville Music Festival taking place April 1-2 at Dorothea Dix Park in Raleigh, N.C. Usher, J. Cole, Drake and Burna Boy will headline the two-day festival featuring performances from Lil Durk, Ari Lennox, City Girls, GloRilla, Sean Paul, Earthgang, Summer Walker, J.I.D., BAS, Baby Tate and Waka Flocka Flame.
This latest pairing is in a long list of collaborations between Crocs and musicians, including Luke Combs, SZA, Karol G, BTS, Justin Bieber, Diplo, Post Malone and Bad Bunny.

Dreamville Records, spearheaded by J. Cole and Ibrahim Hamad, remain one of the top artistic collectives in the music game at the moment. Today (Feb. 24), Dreamville and Daily Paper, a fashion brand out of London, joined forces to launch the stunning Dream Daily collection.
The new drop from Dreamville Records and Daily Paper brings together a vision of what the two labels’ styles would look like while attending university. The new campaign is fashioned like a college yearbook with seven custom pieces in warm colorways and includes letterman jackets, sweatsuits, hoodies, and much more.
Here’s more from the creators:
Inspired by the rich cultural heritage of The Great Mosque of Djenné, Djinguereber Mosque and University of Timbuktu / Sankore championing the power of storytelling and education.
Daily Paper and internationally-acclaimed and multi-platinum record label Dreamville come together to collaborate on a capsule collection entitled ‘Dream Daily’.
As vehicles of culture, music, fashion and art as a means to empower, both brands align on core values and vision. A testimony to their communities and dedication to uplift each other and champion untold stories, the collaboration is an ode to the rich history of the African continent, its contribution. Paying homage to the historical Great Mosque of Djenné, Djinguereber Mosque and University of Sankore / Timbuktu Mali
Considered to be one of the first educational institutions in the world the collection takes inspiration from this part of history that is often untold. With both brands starting their respective labels during their university years, we reimagine what a Daily Paper x Dreamville University would look like.
This comes ahead of J. Cole bringing the Dreamville Festival back to his native North Carolina on April 1-2 this spring.
For fans who wish to pick up the pieces for themselves, items can be purchased by following this link and at Daily Paper locations in Amsterdam, London, and New York.
