Food and shoe brand collabs are nothing new, especially with sneaker collectors always happy to snatch up limited-edition kicks. And so, we’ve seen the likes of White Castle-inspired Pumas, Jelly Belly-inspired Reeboks, and Ben & Jerry’s-inspired Nikes. But in recent years, one footwear company has, maybe surprisingly, become especially popular for partnership—Crocs.
The 7-Eleven X Crocs Classic Clog will be the familiar style that comes with a collection of 7-Eleven-inspired Jibbitz charms. The 7-Eleven X Crocs Classic Sandal, which will feature the bright green and oranges of the convenience store brand, comes with a two-strap sandal that will also come with 7-Eleven Jibbitz. Aside from that, there’s a 7-Eleven X Crocs Mega Crush Clog initially launched in September.
Years ago, there was a news about Crocs working with everyone from KFC. So, who’s the latest brand hoping to ride the clog train to viral fame? None other than the world’s largest convenience store chain, 7-Eleven.
Ken Wakabayashi, co-CEO of 7-Eleven International mentioned,
“Crocs — like 7-Eleven, is a brand recognized by consumers across the world, so we knew this collaboration would be a great fit for our global strategy. We’re excited to bring these two internationally-recognized brands together to delight customers with a selection of limited-edition footwear highlighting some of our fan-favorite products with customized Jibbitz charms.”
With its stark branding and easily recognizable color palette of red, orange, green, and white, 7-Eleven actually makes for some pretty striking shoes. And of course, all of the different styles of footwear come with Crocs’ signature Jibbitz, allowing wearers to accessorize their shoes with charms of the 7-Eleven logo, a Slurpee, a Big Bite Hot Dog, coffee, pizza, a hamburger, and a taco. Cute and at the same time classy.
