Seven spikes are fixed on each side of the shoe, and five more sit on the back strap. Crocs is not known for sharp protrusions, so the design reads as a deliberate joke about the character's shell. The Mario model is more restrained: a red hat motif on the upper and yellow overall buttons on the heel cup. The Peach clog gets glittery thick soles and comes only in women's sizes. Yoshi's clog has a dorsal fin. All models ship with exclusive Jibbitz charms, and separate charm packs will be sold alongside the shoes.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"The Bowser clog with seven spikes per side is the first adult-sized Mario collab from Crocs.
