"Do I have a problem with Squidward? Fundamentally, no. Emotionally, maybe. He could be less of a buzzkill, but he's truly a model neighbor and a great employee at Krusty Krabs. But do I have a problem with Squidward-themed Crocs? Overwhelmingly. I'm a Croc evangelist for life, but these footwear are so incredibly niche I wouldn't want to be caught dead wearing them."
"You see, the Spongebob and Patrick ones look fairly benign... but the Squidward clogs, dropped today, quite literally look like you've slipped your feet into a hole in Squidward's skull. The details aren't subtle at all. Each clog has an immaculate representation of Squidward's face, with its skeptical stare and raised eyebrow, along with that nose only a mother can love."
"Let me reiterate. I love Spongebob as a franchise. I like Squidward as a character. But these shoes are, well, repellent to say the least. Don't expect to score any ladies with these, but if you're a diehard fan of the franchise, it's entirely within your rights to collect these limited-edition pairs, and probably even wear them in support of the movie, which launches in May next year."
I am a lifelong Croc enthusiast who finds Squidward as a neighbor and Krusty Krab employee agreeable but emotionally challenging. Crocs released SpongeBob-themed clogs tied to a new movie, including SpongeBob and Patrick designs that read as relatively benign. The Squidward clogs portray an anatomically literal face, making the shoes appear like feet inserted into a hole in Squidward's skull. Each clog reproduces Squidward's skeptical stare, raised eyebrow, and distinctive nose. The shoes are molded in pale Squidward green with a white strap featuring an anchor pivot. They arrive in unisex sizes for $80 and release on December 11. Diehard fans may collect or wear them.
