Looking For A Fun Novelty Holiday Gift? Try Elf Crocs!
The holiday season is here, and now is the time to hunt down the perfect gifts for your loved ones. But if it’s a hilarious gag gift you’re after, look no further than the new Crocs collaboration. The famously controversial shoe brand has released a festive new clog that pays homage to the immensely popular Christmas movie, Elf.
You’d be hard pressed to find somebody who doesn’t list Elf as one of their all-time favorite Christmas movies. Even 20 years after its release it still resonates with fans as the ultimate feel-good flick for the holiday season. Will Ferrell shines with whimsical charm as Buddy the Elf, an endearingly positive human who was raised by Christmas elves. Throughout the movie Buddy tries to adapt to a new life in the Big Apple, spreading holiday cheer to his family and loved ones along the way.
So to celebrate the 20th anniversary of this timeless Christmas classic, Crocs is now selling limited-edition Elf Classic Clogs!
As you can see on the Crocs website, the Elf clog resembles Buddy’s elf garb with 100% authenticity. The body of the shoe is green with white tufts of fuzz lining the collar. The clog also comes with Elf-themed Jibbitz charms that you can attach to the shoe. These Jibbitz are mainly references to iconic lines from the movie, including Buddy’s exclamations of Santa’s arrival and numerous hug invitations.
Men’s and women’s sizes are now selling at $74.99. For such a hefty price, you better make sure whoever winds up with the Elf shoes after a game of White Elephant wears them as much as possible.
In a way it makes sense why Crocs would want to emulate the lovably goofy elf-man. Much like Buddy himself, Crocs are often viewed as unorthodox and too gaudy to take seriously. But be that as it may, they provide comfort and joy to many people around the world. And at the end of the day, isn’t that what the holidays are all about?
I mean, even as an Elf fan I’m still not gonna wear them. But I can still respect Crocs’ efforts…from a distance. Happy holidays!
