The Shrek x Crocs Classic Clog Releases in September
In a landscape filled with collaborations that range from predictable to left-field, the upcoming Shrek x Crocs Classic Clog promises to make quite an impression.
Crocs, a brand known for its function over form appeal, has been increasingly delving into themed clogs. Fresh off the tracks from their Lightning McQueen release, and amidst the buzz for the soon-to-drop "Chewbacca" colorway, Crocs is setting its sights on another beloved character: Shrek.
The Colorado-based company has taken its Classic Clog and given it an all-green makeover, but this is no ordinary monochromatic affair. The clog is designed with nuanced "freckle" imperfections, mimicking the skin of the iconic Dreamworks character to a tee. But it doesn't stop there. In a playful nod to Shrek's unique look, his signature ears and nose have been added to the forefoot of the clog. It's an unmistakable homage that fans will instantly recognize.
Subtler details like the brown fleece rear pull offer an additional layer of thematic depth, while the official Shrek logo finds its place on the ankle button and insole, leaving no room for doubt about the collaboration's authenticity.
Set to release in September—though as always, this is subject to change—the Shrek x Crocs Classic Clog is not just a shoe; it's a celebration of a cultural icon captured in the comfortable form of a clog.
Keep an eye on select Crocs retailers and the brand's official website, Crocs.com ahead of their launch on September 13.
