After serving up a special “Kerwin Frost Box” at the tail end of November, Kerwin Frost and McDonald’s are cookin’ their next course: a pair of playful “Fry Guy” clogs. Frost is something of a court jester in the world of streetwear — he’s known for light-hearted collaborations with the likes of adidas and Beats — and the “Fry Guy” clogs continue that ethos in both inspiration and look.

The inspiration for the “Fry Guy” clogs seemingly comes from a shaggy blue character that had a role in a 1984 commercial of the same name, a fitting follow-up to the above-mentioned “Kerwin Frost Box,” which revived McDonald’s McNugget Buddies for the first time in over 25 years. From a looks standpoint, the thick-soled, high-gloss clogs feature a textured pattern and blue tone, with their character’s eyes placed on the top of the forefoot and a large McDonald’s logo on the heel. Kerwin’s name is debossed on the insole, and the shoes come packaged in a special box with even more custom branding.

A release date for the Kerwin Frost x McDonald’s “Fry Guy” clogs has yet to be revealed, but with early pairs being sent out to industry figures and influencers alike it’s likely that they’ll be touching down soon.
