Doraemon Brings His Iconic Gadgets to a New Crocs Classic Clog Collaboration
Japanese pop culture’s beloved blue robotic cat, Doraemon, is stepping into the footwear spotlight once again – this time through a playful collaboration with Crocs.
While Doraemon’s sneaker collaborations aren’t as numerous as those of other anime franchises, the character has built an impressive lineup over the years. Past highlights include a 2017 Reebok Instapump Fury, two Converse collaborations earlier this year, and several fan-made designs inspired by Nike SB Dunks and Air Force 1s.
The latest addition, the Doraemon x Crocs Classic Clog, brings a fresh yet simple spin to the popular silhouette. Unlike other themed releases such as the Darth Vader or Grinch Crocs, this pair keeps things clean and nostalgic. The clog’s Croslite foam upper comes in Doraemon’s signature light blue, while the heel strap pays homage to his red collar and is topped off with a gold “bell” accent.
Inside, both brands share space on the co-branded footbed, and fans are treated to six themed Jibbitz charms – three featuring Doraemon himself and three inspired by his most famous gadgets: the Anywhere Door, Dorayaki, and Time Machine.
The Doraemon Crocs Classic Clog will launch on November 5 overseas, with a U.S. release date yet to be confirmed. Collectors and anime enthusiasts alike are already gearing up for what’s sure to be one of Crocs’ most whimsical drops of the year.
