Crocs is going back to the ’80s, thanks to its new collaboration with Pac-Man.
The FNAA-winning footwear brand has partnered with the hit video game for its latest co-branded shoes, featuring two new adult-sized takes on its hit foam shoes. The first, themed after the game’s titular Pac-Man, features a vibrant yellow take on Crocs’ All-Terrain clogs. The $65 style features perforated foam uppers with rounded toes and rugged outsoles, complete with black paneling printed with “Start Game” lettering akin to a vintage arcade.
The pair’s adjustable webbing and foam straps are cast in a similar yellow, black and red color palette, complete with miniature Pac-Man rubber closures. For a whimsical twist, the pair also comes with an accompanying set of themed rubber Jibbitz charms shaped like Pac-Man and his ghost nemesis, “Pac-Man” lettering panels, an arcade station and two red fruits — similar to those Pac-Man chases throughout the game.

Crocs’ second Pac-Man shoe brings a vibrant makeover to its signature Classic clog, which features a rounded black base covered in a blue maze print — just like the same challenge posed to Pac-Man in his namesake game. The $60 style is boosted with adjustable yellow “Pac-Man”-branded straps, as well as a print of the game’s colorful ghosts along its sides.
For a playful themed twist, the style is also completed with rounded Jibbitz charms shaped like Pac-Man, ghosts and fruit.
Both Crocs x Pac-Man styles are now live on Crocs’ website.
Crocs’ collaboration with Pac-Man marks its latest launch for 2023. This year, the label has released a wide range of co-branded collections, limited-edition products and drops with a variety of brands, including Levi’s, “Demon Slayer” and Aespa.
