In an official statement, representatives from both Nintendo and Crocs highlighted that these shoes aim to bring the relaxing, whimsical world of Animal Crossing into everyday adventures, blending the franchise’s comfort and style with Crocs’ well-known practicality. Further enhancing the Animal Crossing aesthetic, the release also includes a range of Jibbitz™ charms designed around popular game characters and elements.

Fans can customize their clogs with charms featuring iconic characters like Tom Nook and K.K.

Slider, representations of island homes, and even an apple tree—some of the most recognizable symbols from the game.

Pricing is set at $69.99 for adult sizes and $54.99 for children’s clogs, while a five-pack of themed Jibbitz charms will be available for $16.99.

Individual character face charms can be purchased separately for $4.99 each.
