Did Victoria Beckham learn to love Crocs? MSCHF’s new SpongeBob yellow version of its Big Red Boot was spotted on Posh Spice – after she vowed she’d ‘rather die’ than wear the shoe brand

If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my … massive Crocs?

Yes, it’s true. Even Posh Spice is finally embracing the controversial shoe.

Victoria Beckham shocked fans on Tuesday when she posted a picture of herself on TikTok wearing a US$450 pair of giant yellow boots from the brand’s collaboration with MSCHF.

“SpongeBob is into it!” Beckham wrote in the caption, even adding the theme song of the famous cartoon character to play alongside the photo.

It’s quite the change of tune for the former Spice Girl, who refused to wear a pair of lilac Crocs that were gifted to her by Justin Bieber in 2021.

“I think I’d rather die but thank you anyway @justinbieber,” she wrote in the caption of an Instagram Story shared at the time.

There was an era when Beckham – who launched her own fashion label in 2008 – only wore heels. During an interview for GMTV that same year, she said, “I just can’t concentrate in flats.” It’s now considered one of Beckham’s most iconic quotes (and she even sold it as a T-shirt).

So you can’t blame the fashion world for being surprised when Beckham wore a pair of white trainers to take the final bow at her autumn 2016 runway show.

“I just can’t do heels any more,” Beckham told The Telegraph in February 2016. “Clothes have to be simple and comfortable.”

Beckham isn’t the only celebrity to wear a pair of MSCHF boots, which have become as much of a trendy star calling card as a table at Nobu Malibu.

Paris Hilton modelled a pair of the bright-yellow boots on her Instagram on Wednesday, while Diplo and Ciara were spotted wearing the red version of the boots in February.

Pictures and videos of the “Big Red Boot” popped up all over TikTok and Twitter, and the US$350 shoes quickly sold out. MSCHF’s new boots with Crocs – which are US$100 more expensive – will go on sale on August 9.
