These Official Squidward Crocs Will Repel Every Adult Woman In A 10-Mile Radius

Posted on by

Do I have a problem with Squidward? Fundamentally, no. Emotionally, maybe. He could be less of a buzzkill, but he’s truly a model neighbor and a great employee at Krusty Krabs. But do I have a problem with Squidward-themed Crocs? Overwhelmingly. I’m a Croc evangelist for life, but these footwear are so incredibly niche I wouldn’t want to be caught dead wearing them. At the same time, I want to be around people who wear then just for the opportunity to judge them!

So, Crocs has been launching Spongebob-themed footwear to mark the launch of the latest movie, and while the company already unveiled Spongebob and Patrick-inspired clogs, they decided to keep the best (subjective, of course) drop for the absolute end. You see, the Spongebob and Patrick ones look fairly benign… but the Squidward clogs, dropped today, quite literally look like you’ve slipped your feet into a hole in Squidward’s skull. The details aren’t subtle at all. Each clog has an immaculate representation of Squidward’s face, with its skeptical stare and raised eyebrow, along with that nose only a mother can love.

Designer: Crocs

Let me reiterate. I love Spongebob as a franchise. I like Squidward as a character. But these shoes are, well, repellent to say the least. Don’t expect to score any ladies with these, but if you’re a diehard fan of the franchise, it’s entirely within your rights to collect these limited-edition pairs, and probably even wear them in support of the movie, which launches in May next year.

The entire croc is molded in the iconic Squidward pale green, with the strap being white and sporting an anchor symbol on the pivot-point. Available in unisex sizes, the shoes will officially hit the shelves on December 11th, with a price tag of $80. Am I talking smack about these shoes just so that I can convince enough people to NOT buy them so that I can get a shot at owning them? Probably, you’ll never know.

Also hitting the shelves tomorrow are the Spongebob and Patrick Star clogs, in their iconic colors and designs. The Spongebob one comes with arms on the shoes’ body, along with a belt running around the midsole to denote Spongebob’s iconic pants. The insole has Spongebob’s face printed on it, so the shoes look like him from the top. Similarly, even the Patrick Star ones come with Jibbitz that are typical to the starfish, like a rock, a minifigure of Patrick himself, a bottle of sunscreen, and a jar of mayo. The straps read Patrick’s famous lines ‘Is Mayonnaise An Instrument?’, and the midsole (like Spongebob) features the green and purple print from Patrick’s pants.

Level up your feet with the new Xbox Classic Controller Clogs

Posted on by

Xbox and Crocs have found an unexpected sweet spot between gaming culture and lifestyle fashion, creating a collaboration that feels both humorous and oddly fitting. For years, Xbox controllers have shaped how players interact with their consoles, while Crocs have become the go-to footwear for effortless comfort. Now, the two brands have merged these worlds with a product that looks like it jumped straight out of a gamer’s wishlist.

The result is the Xbox Classic Clog, a limited-edition release that transforms the familiar Xbox controller layout into a fully wearable piece of footwear. It’s the kind of drop that instantly sparks curiosity, something playful enough to be a conversation starter while still holding the appeal of a genuine collectible.

Designer: Xbox and Crocs

The clogs mimic the look of an Xbox controller with surprising accuracy. Each pair features molded analog sticks, the D-pad, ABXY buttons, menu and share buttons, and even the iconic Xbox guide button positioned just as it appears on a real controller. These fixed-dimensional elements rise from the clog’s surface, creating a sculpted texture that’s unmistakably inspired by the gamepad. The design continues around the sides, where the clogs integrate bumper-like detailing, and the heel strap hinges display the Xbox logo. Even the footbeds get their own touch of gamer personality with “Player Left” and “Player Right” printed inside, giving the shoes a fun two-player theme.

Released today, the Xbox Classic Clog is priced at $80 and sold through the Crocs website. While the design leans heavily into novelty, the footwear retains the brand’s standard comfort features. They remain lightweight, water-friendly, buoyant, and quick to dry, with pivoting heel straps for a more secure fit. They’re also compatible with Jibbitz charms, and Xbox has introduced its own five-pack of themed charms for $20. This pack includes franchises such as Halo, Fallout, DOOM, World of Warcraft, and Sea of Thieves, giving fans a way to personalize their clogs with characters and symbols from some of Microsoft’s biggest titles. Unlike typical Crocs, the strap itself is designed to hold these charms, while the main upper remains focused on showcasing the controller layout.

The collaboration arrives as part of Microsoft’s growing interest in lifestyle products. Earlier in the year, the company released Windows XP–themed Crocs to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Microsoft, showing that this partnership with Crocs is becoming more than a one-off novelty. The Xbox Classic Clog continues this trend, embracing gaming nostalgia and translating it into something wearable, collectable, and immediately recognizable.

Because the release is limited, demand is expected to surge, especially since the launch coincided with the holiday shopping rush. For gamers, it’s more than just footwear—it’s a fun, unexpected extension of the Xbox brand, blending comfort, fandom, and a bit of humor into one product. Whether worn during long gaming sessions, used as lounge shoes, or displayed as part of a gamer’s setup, the Xbox Classic Clog stands out as a clever crossover that celebrates the culture surrounding the console while delivering the ease and comfort Crocs are known for.
