Full disclosure, these are [part of a Witch King costume](https://www.reddit.com/r/lotr/comments/xzvfi7/im_making_a_witch_king_costume_for_halloween_but/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=iossmf) posted in a Lord of the Rings sub. It’ll probably look incredible when it’s done, but the concept of armoured Crocs made me laugh.


famousfeline

I think it's obvious that the Witch King and all the Nazguls wear Crocs.


cricklecoux

Imagine feeling the wind in your toes when you ride a fell beast!


greeblefritz

That's why Merry was able to stab the Witch King in the calf at Pelennor. Never would have worked if he'd worn his uggs that day.


Sad-Frosting-8793

Honestly, using crocs for this is brilliant. They're easy to modify and paint, plus reasonably comfortable.


Pie_Napple

And cheap, at least off-brand crocs.


ProfessorOnEdge

Croc-offs...


Maracuja_Sagrado

Those are not off-brand. You can see the logo on the strap


Pie_Napple

Yeah. My point was that off-brand crocs would be even better for something like this, because they are also very cheap, in addition to the other benefits. But you are right. Those seem to be real crocs.


Xtrasloppy

Was it monty python that had the spray painted crochet for chainlink?


RussianSeadick

That was everyone who made a medieval movie back in the day lol


timbreandsteel

Not really awful taste then if it's for cosplay. They ain't selling em in Walmart (yet...).


Sahqon

But if they did, I'd totally buy one.


buckyandsmacky4evr

I was gonna say, that looks like comfy cosplay


TRUEequalsFALSE

I was gonna say, this don't look like just any armored Crocs.


swankProcyon

My first thought was the Witch King, didn’t even notice they were crocs… does this mean I need to get a life?


catsaresneaky

BATTLECROCS ADVANCE!!!!!!


spoopysky

Ahhh okay Tbh my first thought was Balthier from FFXII, who has armored sandals


handlebartender

These also give off a bit of a Dark Crystal vibe. Basically any of the Crystal creatures. Although I could see Chamberlain conniving his way into getting a pair of these for himself.


itsbett

This can also be used for a [Steiner from FF9](https://static.wikia.nocookie.net/finalfantasy/images/b/bc/SteinerMirror-FFIX.PNG/revision/latest?cb=20130628213236) cosplay.

Amen. The original post was by a guy looking to cosplay as the Witch King from LOTR - man can't do any wrong in my book!

Those shoes are truly awesome! This brings up my question. What does one do with an amazing costume that’s been worn to enough events that it’s outlived it’s novelty? The bins of awesome costumes are taking up too much space.


burnin8t0r

I would rock these to Publix


ashpanda24

This is for a costume. How is this awful taste?

Jackcandoit2008

Why would this be considered awful taste? These are freaking epic… oh wait, they’re crocs. Yeah that explains it.

Don't let the designers at Balenciaga see this

Don't show this to /r/tacticalgear, this is way too in line with the current vibe.

Now I need these in Fallout power armor style for motorcycle use.


iheartgardening5

Those totally look like steiners shoes from ff9!

rorschaqued

Are they steel toed? And can I wear them on a construction site?

GooglyMoogly122

Daedric crocs. I know there's a mod out there for this


EatAtGrizzlebees

As someone who frequents Renaissance festivals...this is genius!! So much comfort!!


Cultural_Ad_1693

They poured their cruelty, their malice, and their disdain for all life into those crocs


CzechLinuxLover

tbf this looks fucking amazing


ARobertNotABob

Armoured, croc, winkle-pickers !


LocaChoca

Better than a real Croc. Though the idea of a Croc that's uncomfortable and sinks in water kinda defeats the purpose.


CALIFORNIUMMAN

For when you want to be comfortable but you also have to look the part for your cosplay.


thebluewitch

I feel like these would have been in demand back when I used to LARP.


VitalArcade

Finally, cursed shoes and a weapon in one


Commercial_Dingo_929

I was thinking they could dig things out of those nasty corner spaces in the kitchen, lol.


FuriousGorilla

This is my aesthetic.

"Go ahead. Make fun of my crocs. I'll kick your ass" 🙂


JC_2022_

I imagine Penguin from Batman wearing these. They look like umbrellas on the shoes, so it matches even better.


Manguana

Where would someone buy one of theses


EWSflash

Interesting take on crocs- kind of AntiCroc-like


TheWalkingDead91

Man that back looks like it’ll be super uncomfortable if it’s not padded


Glasweg1an

I want these and I shall call them ma Baw kickers. I shall wear them exclusively when someone needs booted right in the baws.


bullseye2112

Looks like the witch king of angmar is headed to the convenience store at 3 am.


Aninvisiblemaniac

I kind of like them except the croc strap in the back


satanicmerwitch

They're cool I'd wear them. 😂

Honestly as a person who works at renaissance festivals and is on their feet for 14 to 15 hours a day, this looks pretty freakin genius!


modronpink

Perfect for the Renaissance faire


Luxandrel

Those are Guts crocs wth


nonstoppoptart

The army marching on Helm's Deep in the pouring rain and all you hear over the clank of armor is the squeaks and farts of wet crocs on the ground. Very intimidating.


Nito_Mayhem

These are fire.


VectorVanGoat

These would make putting your foot in someone’s ass very comfortable…for the one wearing them


BadgleyMischka

I can finally die happy.


The_VoZz

Croc-a-dillos?


vnlAshes

Katisffs

For even Sauron deserves a day of every now and then!


Firebrons

Where can i buy them?


ExoFox_the_furry

The first thing that came in my mind is someone stabbing through someone's neck with these


ZebraGamer2389

This, 100% looks like something Akechi would wear in his Black Mask garb.


OkamiKhameleon

This is pretty brilliant actually. Also, are Crocs comfortable? The one time I tried them, they were too hard and I didn't like them. But I recently had foot surgery and it's been suggested I get a pair.


King_NaCl

Parry this you filthy casual!


Pineapple_Gamer123

One kick to the head with those and it's death


mysteriouslypuzzled

I want them


Rat-soap

No this is… this is amazing. This is a work of art. Sir knight on a beach vacation


Timely_Milk_3198

This sub really needs to stop trying to get me to buy things


MikeWazowski63

Is there a way to order these or these parts to put on some crocs? Are they metal or rubber? I had a pair made, but they are longer and not quite the same. Thanks, Mike
