Uzumaki Crocs On Foot Review

Here is the pair that I got to review. Before we get into the nitty-gritty details, let’s talk design.

These Crocs are definitely not subtle. Sporting a vibrant orange upper, reminiscent of Naruto’s iconic jumpsuit, and paired with a sleek black midsole, they’re an instant taijutsu attack to the face.

Right away you notice Naruto’s forehead protector in chromed-out metal at the front. The black headband has additional shading too.

These come in kid size only so size 11 preschool up to size 6 grade school.

The Bad

Unfortunately it looks like the Jibbitz are glued on the kids sizes. The charms aren’t glued on the adult sizes.

On the one shoe you get Naruto’s face, spinning kunai and a bowl of Ichiraku ramen. On the other you get Naruto doing shadow clone jutsu, a pair of kunai, and a light up Kurama.

With the lights you kind of have to step hard to get them to activate.

The orange paint is also kind of sus. You can see the black coming through on the orange upper.

The Good

On the bright side there’s more good than bad. There are so many easter eggs built in that fans will love. They were able to take an iconic character and make something unique to him.

The strap is a nice puffy black and orange with some Uzumaki symbols as well. On foot they feel super comfy just like most classic crocs.

Fit

In terms of sizing, I would recommend going true to size. If you don’t already have classic Crocs clogs, then try them on in store.

Kakashi Hatake Review

Kakashi Crocs

The Kakashi classic clogs come with a truly unique design. There are so many details that come from Kakashi Hatake also known as the copy ninja and captain of Team 7.

The first thing you notice is the signature green Flak jacket that is worn by Chunin and Jounin in Konoha. It even comes with a utility scroll pouch on the straps which is cool to see.

In terms of Jibbitz there is shuriken that looks like it’s been thrown and embedded in the shoe, Icha Icha Paradise, a kunai and Kakashi sensei’s Anbu mask. It’s great to see all the easter eggs from one of the most imporant characters in the series.

On Foot Review CrocKashi sensei

I was also able to cop a pair of the Kakashi clogs and they are straight fire. The colors pop nicely like they came straight out of the anime.

My favorite feature is the utility pockets. The design come from the Hidden Leaf flak jackets and they’re useful for storing things. They can also be removed if you want.

Itachi Sasuke Uchiha Crocs Release Date: June 6 2024

Itachi Uchiha

Fan-favorite Itachi Uchiha, and Sasuke’s older brother, gets some love as well. The Itachi clogs have a slick design. I’d say it’s the best looking Naruto croc.

It features dark navy upper with akatsuki red clouds all over. The missing-nin Hidden leaf headband is featured prominently as well along with the Itachi, crow, Mangekyo Sharingan and shuriken jibbitz.

Sasuke Uchiha

The Sasukes are a loud purple. It’s the same shade of purple Sasuke’s skirt-like apparel and the pink obi rope belt completes the look.

As the main character’s rival and best friend, it’s only right that Sasuke gets the collab treatment as well.

This model comes with a shuriken, Uchiha symbol, chibi Sasuke, and artwork Jibbitz. Like the Itachis, Sasukes comes with a Mangekyo Sharingan too.

The Jiraiya crocs take inspiration from the legendary sannin’s clothes with beige, grey mesh, and red. His forehead protector has the “oil” kanji on it and the Jibbitz are a scroll, sandals, ninja star and a Chibi Jiraiya.

Minato Namikaze

The fiery white and red upper and the “Hokage” kanji jibbit make it clear that the Minato model takes inspiration from the Fourth Hokage’s cloak. There’s also an artwork, shuriken, flying thundergod kunai, and chibi Minato Jibbitz. His headband is the classic blue Konoha headband.
