“Twilight” fans were left disappointed last fall when a Crocs collection inspired by the cult favorite vampire franchise sold out before they could secure a pair. But Crocs was listening — the “Twilight” collection is restocking on Nov. 13 in the U.S. only, with a few new elements coming out this season, too.
Crocs teased the new drop on social media on Wednesday with a “Twilight”-esque graphic of lightning over a forest with the words “we heard you” written on it; if there was any doubt that this was a reference to the franchise, the caption referenced a famous “Twilight” quote: “hold on tight, spider monkeys.”
On Thursday, Crocs confirmed the restock with a video starring “Twilight” actor Peter Facinelli, who plays Dr. Carlisle Cullen in the movies. In a joint post between Facinelli and Crocs, the actor says, “I heard that Crocs is restocking their ‘Twilight’ clogs,” and he shows off the shoes and recreates the high-speed athleticism of the “Twilight” vampires — all awash in the classic cool blue-gray color grading of the film.
The Classic Clog and Platform Clog that launched last year are being restocked, about a year after their initial release. The silhouettes respectively feature a blue Pacific Northwest tree scape and a glittering black design with a romantic swirling silver trim.
Additionally, there’s also a new blind box collectible of elevated Jibbitz charms featuring beloved characters and one ultra-rare pack of three. In December, fans will have one last chance to secure a “Twilight” shoe as a new special-edition clog inspired by Bella and Edward’s love story is slated to debut.
With the collectible Jibbitz, the odds of drawing the core pack is 1/6, while the odds of drawing the rare pack is 1/72. The core pack includes pieces ranging from Bella’s orange truck to a heart reading “Where the hell have you been, loca?” with a wolf in a nod to Jacob. The rare pack includes a storybook with Edward and Bella on one side and Jacob and Bella on the other; a heart and key connected with a chain; and another chain connecting three framed portraits, one for each member of the love triangle.
The initial Crocs x “Twilight” collaboration came out the same year that the first “Twilight” book turned 20. The books and movies continue to occupy a space in pop culture, with many crossovers in the world of fashion. In addition to Crocs, Alex and Ani released a jewelry collection inspired by the franchise this year.
