Trolli’s Spicy Crawlers Just Inspired a Free Sneaker

Trolli is bringing its latest candy launch into the sneaker space with Lil Kicks, a limited-edition shoe inspired by the brand’s new Spicy Crawlers.

Created with Chicago-born sneaker designer and artist Jeff Cole, the pair translates the candy’s sweet, sour and spicy look into a glossy black upper, lime-green midsole and strawberry-pink outsole. A grinning gummi worm appears on the pineapple-yellow tongue, while candy-inspired laces, printed insoles and an interior heat-scale tag complete the theme.

The sneaker arrives alongside Trolli Spicy Crawlers, which add a hint of habanero to three flavors: strawberry, pineapple and mango.

Trolli is also making smaller-footed fans the focus of the release. Lil Kicks will only be available in men’s US sizes 7 through 8.5 and women’s US sizes 5 through 6.5.

Pairs will be given away for free on a first-come, first-served basis through TrolliLilKicks.com beginning Friday, Aug. 7, at 11 a.m. ET, while supplies last. Fans who miss out—or fall outside the available size range—will also have a chance to secure a set of limited-edition adjustable Trolli laces.

Trolli Spicy Crawlers are rolling out at retailers nationwide now.

For more Sweet Kicks, the "Palest Purple" Nike Mind 001 is releasing in 2026.
