The Full Collection

The Pokémon x Crocs collection is a showcase of four designs, each paying homage to a Generation 1 favorite: Charizard, Gengar, Jigglypuff, and Snorlax. Every design brims with flaunting colors that echo each Pokémon’s unique traits.

Charizard Crocs

For those who revel in the fiery might of Charizard, these Crocs are a bold declaration. Adorned in a striking orange and black color scheme—reflective of Charizard’s fiery spirit—these shoes feature a special fire-type Jibbitz charm.

Gengar Crocs

Enthusiasts of the cheeky ghost-type Pokémon will be ecstatic over the Gengar Crocs, which captures Gengar’s playful yet spooky essence. Covered in purple and black, these Crocs proudly display a ghost-type symbol among their Jibbitz charms.

Jigglypuff Crocs

On a softer note, you have the Jigglypuff Crocs, embodying the charm of this pink, lullaby-singing Pokémon. These Crocs, with their gentle pink hues and a starry Jigglypuff Jibbitz charm, embody cuteness.

Snorlax Crocs

Ideal for those leisurely days when relaxation is key, Snorlax’s Crocs have a soothing blue and white palette, reflecting the essence of this beloved, slumbering Pokémon. With a normal-type symbol embellishing the Jibbitz charm, they emerge as the ultimate footwear for a chill day.
