It's been fourteen years since Illumination presented Despicable Me -- the family-friendly animated comedy film that introduced the world to minions, the comedic sidekicks that have been embraced in popular culture as meme royalty. With Despicable Me 4 arriving this July, the franchise has again heightened its visibility with a viral campaign featuring Nikola Jokić as Gru, a collaboration with Buff Monster and now a debut collaboration with Crocs on their Classic Clog silhouette.

It's been a busy year for the Classic Clog as media-based projects with everything from Naruto Shippuden to SpongeBob Squarepants treating fans to playful pairs. For the Minions x Crocs Classic Clog, the iconic denim overalls of the minions have been printed onto the slip-on's upper with Gru's "G" logo arriving at the toe and the attachment point of the straps. Looking closer at the lockdown system, the minions' goggles appear on the strap with an eye detail inside. Elsewhere, an "Illumination Presents Minions" design appears at the heel while the footbed jokingly includes "LEFT" labeling on both the left and right clogs.

At the time of writing, Crocs has not announced when its Minions-themed pair of Classic Clogs will be landing on shelves. Stay tuned for updates as it's likely to launch soon via Crocs and select retailers at a starting price of $70 USD.
