For the 30th anniversary of the Pokémon franchise, Crocs and Pokémon are preparing the third and final act of their anniversary collaboration: the lineup now includes three pairs of clogs featuring 3D faces of Pikachu, Gengar, and Jigglypuff. Two models are built on the Classic Clog platform, while the Jigglypuff version sits on a 41mm high platform adorned with embossed musical notes. In Japan, sales of all three pairs will begin on November 17, 2026, at 10:00 AM local time on the official Crocs website.

### Three Characters — Three Different Models

Unlike many licensed collaborations where a character is simply "stitched" onto a standard shape, each Pokémon here has been given its own specific construction. Pikachu and Gengar are designed on the base of the Classic Clog: a yellow pair with black ears and characteristic red cheeks, and a purple model with a toothy grin and red eyes. Jigglypuff, by contrast, has received a more "fashion-forward" interpretation — a pink clog on a massive 41mm platform, with white musical notes appearing on the sides, referencing the character's vocal nature.

### Design: From 3D Faces to Poké Ball Straps

The key visual element of the collection is the three-dimensional character face located on the top of the clog, protruding above the sole. The heel straps of all pairs are decorated with enamel rivets in the shape of Poké Balls and Pokémon emblems, turning a standard functional element into part of the thematic design. On the pink Jigglypuff model, the face is complemented by a large eye and a triangular element imitating an ear, while the purple Gengar features relief "spikes" and teeth.

### Pricing and Sales Schedule

According to the Japanese Crocs website, the Pikachu and Gengar pairs will retail for 13,200 yen each, while the platform Jigglypuff model will cost 13,750 yen. Sales are scheduled to start on November 17, 2026, at 10:00 AM local time. The release date for the collection in Ukraine has not been confirmed at the time of writing, so the exact schedule for local sales remains open.

### Context: 30 Years of the Franchise and the Second Anniversary Wave

The launch marks the 30th anniversary of Pokémon: the first games, Pokémon Red and Pokémon Green, were released in Japan in 1996, and since then the franchise has become one of the highest-grossing in the history of the gaming industry. The current lineup is already the second release in the Crocs and Pokémon anniversary collaboration; back in August 2026, the brands introduced red-and-white clogs themed after Poké Balls. Thus, by the end of the year, the collection will have gathered at least two waves of models, each drawing on recognizable symbols from the universe.

### What This Means for the Licensed Footwear Market

The collaboration continues the trend of "volumetric" character clogs, where the hero's face becomes part of the sole's shape rather than just a patch. For Crocs, this is a way to retain audience attention in the lifestyle footwear segment, and for Pokémon, it is an expansion of their presence in the everyday wearable merch category. The combination of a classic model and an experimental 41mm platform in one line allows the brands to reach both conservative buyers and those looking for a more expressive silhouette.
