KL Rahul joins the Crocs family as brand ambassador

Indian cricketer KL Rahul has been revealed as a Global Brand Ambassador of footwear brand, Crocs. The partnership also sees Rahul become the first-ever Indian athlete to take up the role with the partnership being launched with the ‘Play Hard. Rest Easy.’ campaign. By bringing Rahul on board, Crocs India aims to connect with India’s sporting culture and reach out to wider audiences across India. As the face of the brand, Rahul will be starring in various media campaigns, advertisements and other brand promotions. 

KL Rahul, commented,

“I’m excited to partner with Crocs and be part of a campaign that feels so true to my lifestyle. Cricket involves constant travel, training and long days on the field, so comfort becomes really important. Crocs are easy, stylish, versatile and something I naturally reach for off the field. ‘Play Hard. Rest Easy.’ reflects that balance for me—giving your best when it matters and then taking the time to relax and recharge.”

Manoj Juneja, Country Manager, Crocs India, said,

“India is a key growth market for Crocs, and partnerships that connect with the country’s passion 

for sport and culture are central to how we build the brand here. ‘Play Hard. Rest Easy.’ reflects our belief that comfort and self-expression are essential to everyday moments, both on and off the field. K.L. Rahul represents a new generation of athletes who seamlessly balance performance with personal style, making him a natural partner as we continue to strengthen Crocs’ presence in India.”

Sidhant Mago, Creative Head, Daftar Creative Room, added,

“The idea behind the campaign was to tell a story about sport beyond the field, those in-between moments that rarely get seen but are very real for athletes. KL Rahul embodied that balance perfectly. With Achowe directing the film, we were able to bring that world to life in a way that feels natural, personal and true to the spirit of Crocs.”
