Nintendo teams up with Crocs for Animal Crossing collaboration

Nintendo and Crocs announce their first collaboration with Animal Crossing footwear, launching August.

Nintendo is partnering with Crocs for the first time, launching a new Animal Crossing collaboration on August 26 2025. The collaboration will bring the world of Animal Crossing to Crocs’ well-known footwear, offering fans the chance to bring their favourite game into everyday life.

Animal Crossing, which debuted in 2001, is one of Nintendo’s most popular franchises, known for its relaxing gameplay, life-simulation mechanics, and nature-filled environments. 

The limited-edition Animal Crossing x Crocs collection will include two models: the Animal Crossing Platform Clog for adults and the Classic Clog for children. 

The designs feature forest-green tones to reflect the game’s island landscapes and ocean-blue soles as a nod to the seaside settings players explore.

Crocs fans will also be able to customise their pairs with Animal Crossing-themed charms, with characters such as Tom Nook and K.K. Slider available, along with in-game items like a house and an apple tree.

Crocs described the collaboration as allowing fans to “step into a relaxing, nature-filled world with [their] favourite characters right at [their] feet.” 

This collaboration marks the first time Crocs has worked with Nintendo, adding to previous gaming partnerships with franchises including Minecraft, Five Nights at Freddy’s, and Sonic the Hedgehog.

The Animal Crossing x Crocs collection will be available for purchase online at Crocs.com, in Crocs retail stores across the United States, and through select retail partners from August 26.
