“Are ya ready kids?” The dynamic duo, SpongeBob SquarePants and his loyal sidekick Patrick Star, are teaming up to bring a splash of colour to the ever-comfy Crocs. These aren’t your ordinary Crocs, they’re the SpongeBob and Patrick-themed Classic Clogs, each with their own unique features that bring these playful shoes to life. But before we dive into where you can snap up a pair, let’s pause to celebrate the delightful, whimsical details that make these shoes a must-have for any SpongeBob fan.
A Closer Look at the Collection
A SpongeBob Squarepants collaboration wouldn’t be complete without paying homage to the aesthetics of its cherished duo. Each pair of Clogs is a nostalgic trip down memory lane, adorned in the characters’ distinct signature colours and showcasing iconic elements from the beloved cartoon series.
SpongeBob Classic Clog
Take SpongeBob’s pair, for example. The Classic Clog is a whimsical delight, sporting a yellow upper adorned with darker spots to perfectly mimic his sponge-like appearance. Adding to the fun, Jibbitz charms of his tiny arms and iconic red tie bring the character to life.
From there, the midsole features graphics paying tribute to his classic brown pants and black belt combo. To add an extra touch of whimsy, his cheerful face beams from the side of the sports mode strap and the footbed, with different expressions displayed on each shoe.
Patrick Classic Clog
But let me tell you, Patrick’s pair is equally impressive. His clog features a pink foam base with light red dots to mimic the starfish’s distinct design. The midsole is a vibrant mix of green and purple, reflecting his iconic lime-green shorts with purple flowers. Naturally, it comes with fun Jibbitz charms, including Patrick’s iconic rock home, a bottle of sunscreen, and even a relaxed Patrick soaking up the sun.
However, our favourite charm has to be the adorable little jar of mayo. It pays homage to Patrick’s many hilarious moments with mayo, especially his famous query, “Is mayonnaise an instrument?” from the beloved “Band Geeks” episode. In fact, this memorable quote is prominently featured across both sports mode straps, accompanied by images of Patrick’s cheerful face along the straps’ sides and again on the footbed.
Other Footwear in the Collection
But the excitement doesn’t stop with the SpongeBob and Patrick Clogs. The collection also features the Cozzzy Sandal, boasting a tan foam body, a sky-blue terrycloth interior, and a myriad of delightful details. Complete with their fabulous Jibbitz charms; these sandals perfectly capture a beach day adventure with SpongeBob and Patrick.
Additionally, the collection features the blue and black Crocs Off Court Clog, which showcases all your favourite Bikini Bottom residents. From Squidward to Sandy, Mr. Krabs, Gary, and even Plankton, these clogs bring the entire gang along for the ride.
Where to Grab Your Favourite Pair from the SpongeBob Squarepants X Crocs Collection
All of the shoes from the Crocs collaboration, including the SpongeBob and Patrick-themed Classic Clog colourways, are currently available across various platforms. But don’t wait too long; these exclusive designs are selling out faster than a Krabby Patty at an anchovy feeding frenzy.
