JW Anderson is launching a new whimsical clothing offering, and this time, the designer brand is showcasing its all-new ‘Frog Clogs.’ As the name suggests, this funky footwear is designed to resemble an actual frog, similar to Anderson’s previous ‘Pigeon Bag,’ which saw the city bird transform into a clutch bag.
The image shows a rubbery green upper with a crimson tongue-like sole and protruding yellow eyes. The slip-on shoes seem to be a collaboration with the Wellipets brand of frog wellington boots because they include the company’s branding on the insole and soles of the shoes.
Initially teased for its Milan Fashion Week collection, the clogs represent JW Anderson’s playful and fun attitude towards fashion.
