In addition to its basic inline line, "crocs" is also popular for its broad range of collaborations. Last month, CrocsTag team with mastermind JAPANhave just realized that they have teamed up with Wu-TangClan, a hip-hop group from Staten Island, New York, derived from the word "Wu-tong" (martial arts). The footwear, which features the Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style fighting game starring the group, will be released at limited stores on Saturday, July 16, 2012.
Classic Wu-Tang Clan Slide ¥4,180
Classic Wu-Tang Clan Clog ¥6,600
Wu-Tang Clan 5 PACK ¥1,925
This collaboration was born out of Crocs' empathy with the fact that the members of the "Wu-TangClan" are heavily influenced by kung-fu movies. The lineup includes two models: a slide type with a yellow and black logo on the foothead and a "clog" with the "Wu-Tang" logo on the back strap. The boldly decorated oversized charms are sure to make an outstanding presence on your feet. The 5-pack of charms that will also be available are not to be missed.
In addition, items from this collection will go on sale in advance at the Crocs pop-up at FIVESTAR in Osaka from July 15 (Fri.). An after-party will be held from 6:00 p.m. on the first day, so be sure to stop by if you are in the area.
