Crocs works together with anime franchise Gundam to celebrate RX-78-2 in the form of an All-Terrain clog. This is launching to celebrate the 45th anniversary of Gundam and it fully gets a Gundam makeover. This is translated in the form of the bright color palette of blue, yellow, red, and white which honors the mobile suit by Amuro Ray.
The more intricate details elevate the design further with a bright print over the clogs along with custom rivets which create a mechanical touch. As per usual, the shoes are complete with Gundam-themed Jibbitz charms for a personalized touch by wearers. It is rounded out by a rugged outsole unit for durability and durability in comparison to the usual Classic Clogs.
