A Tribute to RX-78-2

The design of the Gundam x Crocs All-Terrain Clog is a lively tribute to the RX-78-2. The upper part of the clog showcases a striking blue, red, and yellow graphic. In this Crocs Gundam collab, the collaboration graphic mirrors the distinctive colors of the famous mecha.

Adding to the aesthetic appeal, the clogs have custom Jibbitz charms. They include an additional yellow TPU piece that extends towards the forefoot, enhancing the visual representation of the Gundam.

Three anime-style giant robots, known as Gundams, stand side by side in space. The left robot is in red, white, and blue with yellow accents; the centre robot features a sleek, modern design with blue, white, and yellow; the right robot resembles a red windmill with large blades. The background shows a view of space with Earth below.

Enhanced Utility and Comfort

These clogs come with significant utilitarian upgrades compared to the standard Crocs, and they embody the essence of this exciting collaboration between Crocs and Gundam.

The All-Terrain Clog features a more rugged outsole, designed to handle diverse outdoor conditions.

The heel strap is enhanced with padded fabric and nylon straps, ensuring superior comfort and stability.

TPU pieces connect the lateral and medial sides of the strap. This adds durability and a touch of the Gundam’s mechanical aesthetic.

Exclusive Branding

Adding to the exclusivity of this collaboration, the “RX-78-2” name is on the strap. Meanwhile, the TPU components boast the logo of the Earth Federation Forces, highlighting this special collaboration between Gundam and Crocs in unique ways.

These details make the clogs a must-have for Gundam enthusiasts and collectors.
