In a move that blends nostalgia with everyday comfort, Crocs announced today that it is releasing a limited‑edition clog honoring the 20th anniversary of Disney‑Pixar’s hit film Cars. The new design draws directly from the movie’s star, Lightning McQueen, and showcases the bright Dinoco blue that fans associate with the charismatic race car.
Design details and pricing
The Dinoco‑blue clog retains Crocs’ signature lightweight construction, breathable Croslite™ material, and the familiar slip‑on style. The shoe is priced at $74.99 and will be available for purchase starting September 16. Crocs describes the release as a “statement‑making” addition to its fall rotation, aimed at collectors and casual wearers alike.
Promotion and discounts
Alongside the launch, Crocs is running a limited‑time promotion. From September 19 through September 20, shoppers can receive an additional 50% off select footwear and accessories. The company also highlights its Crocs Club membership program, which offers a 15% discount on the next purchase for new members, early access to future collaborations, and exclusive shipping benefits.
Military and first‑responder discounts
In line with its ongoing support for service members, Crocs continues to provide a one‑time 15% discount to active‑duty personnel, veterans, retirees, reservists, National Guard members, and their immediate families. Verification is handled through ID.me. Additional discounts are available for first responders, teachers, healthcare workers, and students, with a 25% discount for students and a 15% discount for the other groups.
Why the collaboration matters
Character‑themed footwear has become a staple of Crocs’ product strategy, and the company’s previous collaborations with popular franchises have often sold out quickly. By tapping into the enduring popularity of Cars, Crocs is positioning itself to attract both longtime fans of the film and consumers looking for a playful, comfortable shoe for everyday wear.
Availability
The Lightning McQueen Dinoco clog will be sold through Crocs’ official website and authorized retailers nationwide. Shoppers are encouraged to act quickly, as limited‑edition releases typically have a short production run.
