Crocs x Hedley & Bennett

Another day, another Crocs collab, this time with a back-of-the-house twist. We’re not explicitly saying that their latest collection with kitchen gear experts Hedley & Bennett is inspired by Hulu’s The Bear. But we’re also not not saying that, either.

Whether you can hear the ticket machine rattling off in your dreams, or just love yelling ‘BEHIND!’ at whoever’s standing in your way while you’re making dinner, H&B teamed up with Crocs to design these kitchen kicks specifically with pro-cooks in mind. These babies are decked out with some serious H&B soul, and are available on the H&B site and on Crocs.com for $77.00. We love the little details like H&B’s iconic “&” and the lightning bolt inside the heel pad, as well as the super classy red stitching.

Clogs have always been the go-too footwear for line cooks and head chefs alike (you can spot Carmy and Sydney sporting some in both seasons), but Crocs aren’t always the the most durable option for a space where hot oil and Sunday Gravy are being thrown around. “Enjoy the comfort and style of the iconic clog, now with a slip-resistant outsole and unique adjustable heel strap,” the description on H&B reads. The enhanced traction along with a specially-designed heel strap makes them extra secure, and they’re also easier to get on and off with textured pull tabs.

Plus, just look at those Jibbitz (which you can also buy separately for $17)! The 5-pack including an H&B apron, “Yes Chef!” lettering, and labeled deli cup are an IYKYK nod to all the back of house cooks out there, and wouldn’t be out of place at the Original Beef (or Berf, as the misprinted tee says) of Chicago. The new collection also includes the Bistro Clog for $56.00, similarly designed with food service workers in mind. They’re light and supportive enough to get you through even the longest shifts, but with a thicker, enclosed toe design to help protect your feet from spills and drops.

But if you’re not looking for sturdy workwear and still want to show off that you’ve binged The Bear, there’s plenty of gear you can shop online to show you’re a true fan: including a typo-free Original Beef tee and plenty more fan-made merch on shops like Etsy and on Amazon. (Shop The Bear-inspired merch at Etsy HERE.)

While season 3 has yet to be announced, you can catch up on both season of The Bear now streaming on Hulu — just sign up for a subscription starting at $7.99/month (Hulu With Ads) or $14.99/month (Hulu No Ads). If you don’t have a Hulu subscription, you can nab a 30-day Hulu free trial to watch all of The Bear right now while you wait for your new Crocs Clogs to arrive.
