Ever since images of a pair of prototypes of the Crocs x Naruto Classic Clogs collaboration surfaced on social media earlier this year, fans of the long-running Japanese anime TV series have been eagerly waiting for official updates and more information on the collab release.
After all, in 2023 alone, Naruto has undertaken some pretty impressive collaborations, with brands like Jordan and ASICS.
At the same time, Crocs‘ propensity to collaborate assiduously with film and television franchises also made a possible collaboration with Naruto extremely credible.
And here is in fact excellent news for lovers of the famous Japanese animated series. The themed collaboration with Crocs which until now was only rumored has been made official.

Now that Crocs has also confirmed and shared the photos of the collaboration on its social channels, all that remains is to find out how long it will take for the Naruto Clogs to go sold-out.
The exclusive Naruto x Crocs collection includes two special iterations of the Classic Clogs inspired by the two iconic characters of the Japanese comic: the protagonist Naruto Uzumaki, main character of Naruto Shippuden, and Kakashi Hatake, the masked sensei from Naruto.
Both colorways are based on the character’s costume from the show: Naruto in orange and Kakashi in an olive green base that draws inspiration from the ninja’s jounin uniform.
It’s also worth noting that this version of the Classic Clog features added comfort thanks to extra padding around the adjustable heel strap.
And as is customary with most Crocs releases, both Naruto Shippuden clogs come with a selection of Jibbitz, the brand’s signature decorative charms, inspired by Naruto.
For Naruto’s Clog, for example, Jibbitz of his head, him tying the seal, Kurama, a bowl of ramen, kunai and shuriken are available. Kakashi’s Crocs, on the other hand, come with a pouch on the heel strap and five Jibbitz: his head, his favorite book, Anbu mask, Kunai and Shuriken.
The Naruto collection is currently available on the Crocs website, including clogs in adults and children’s sizes, which can be accessorised with a separate pack of themed Jibbitz.
