  • Hey everyone it's me Alex and everyone's favorite food.

  • Rt boy have I got a doozy for you guys today.

  • This was not unexpected video.

  • I can clearly see that he does not want me to continue basically.

  • Sam called me out of the blue and said Alex, you need to come over here and you need to see what I have made for you.

  • Your mission should you choose to accept it is to go outside your comfort zone, incorporate and embrace a new style clothes in our pajamas because that would be a new style outside of my comfort zone.

  • It would be closed at our pajamas.

  • They're not pajamas.

  • I'm about to give you something and they're not pajamas are you ready?

  • Are you ready?

  • No, that sounds terrible.

  • That is not the answer but I'm going to proceed anyway.

  • Pleasure is today I feel ill.

  • Thank you.

  • Now hold on hold on before you do anything else I want you to feel what is in front of you.

  • Tell me what you feel danger.

  • Danger.

  • Fair, fair.

  • If you're ready, open your eyes and you will be wearing these today.

  • I know I know exactly what this is.

  • I can tell from the holes.

  • Have you have you seen this is a crock Yeah with spice.

  • I think I think you some sort of strange being here.

  • So I think Oh yes.

  • Uh huh Duck corrects there are crocs.

  • Yeah.

  • Goethe goethe not crocs not crop, These are groundnuts, Grog grog grog nuts, not crocs but got grub nuts SAn did you make these?

  • Well not not the shoe per se.

  • I had to get the shoe from Taj.

  • Everything else that you see attached to the shoe.

  • I placed their wish.

  • No, you got these was I wish you're joking.

  • That soft wish, wish that soft.

  • Wish the chain is off.

  • Wish the screw is off.

  • Wish insane.

  • You must have did you see this?

  • This is like a you've seen them too.

  • They went viral.

  • They were completely viral.

  • Everyone was doing about them.

  • Could you wear this for a week or is this like a day test?

  • No, they were, I think we do the day we're test and then we see how many things start falling off there.

  • I wonder if he's gonna fit me.

  • They shoot, I may need your face in your sleep.

  • No, I'm just kidding.

  • I asked, I'm glad I have a glove sam.

  • That's insane.

  • That's wild.

  • No, this is not what I was expecting.

  • When you asked me to come here tonight.

  • This is like early 2000s.

  • I remember when Crooks came out and they were all the rage and I got a purple pear and I used to put little things in them.

  • I used to put little design like I think I had like a little sun and a ladybug and a handbag, little rubber things.

  • They were all the rage and the more little things that you could stick in the holes.

  • The more popular you were in school.

  • That sounds like high school fun times.

  • Never in my wildest dreams would I have imagined that my best friend made me a pair of golf crocs but hey, it's a wild world we live in.

  • So basically a couple of months ago, some tweets went viral featuring these Gothic crocs now.

  • Yes, indeed they are a real thing that someone is selling on the internet on Etsy of course.

  • Where else do you find these unusual wonderful things.

  • So he is called garbage boy on instagram.

  • His Etsy store is called heavy cream store.

  • He customizes these made to order Gothic style crocs.

  • You can have a chain on the side for an extra $20 extra.

  • It'll cost you $260 if you want to buy a pair from him, go check out heavy cream store.

  • He is the original creator of this design but it is set up Sam that we have to think for what I'm about to show you now.

  • Sam saw the viral tweets decided that he was going to make them himself.

  • He decided that he was going to hop on wish And see if he could buy the studs and spikes and all the things that he needed to make them.

  • And sure enough he did.

  • So everything that you see on the Gulf Crocs came from wish.

  • So as you'll see in Sam's video, it cost him about $50 to put these together because the spikes did cost a fair bit.

  • I want to buy things from wish you do have to pay shipping and sometimes the shipping is like $10 per item.

  • I have since heard that had he bought these spikes from Ali Express, he probably would have got them cheaper than he got them on Wish and he wouldn't have to have paid shipping.

  • So hey, if you want to go and customizing your own crocs, check out Ali Express instead of Wish, The funny thing was that I had a bunch of Gothic clothing from dolls.

  • Kill that I was going to make a video about dolls.

  • Kill had emailed me asking me if I wanted to do a Gothic clothing video, so I picked a whole bunch of clothes off the website.

  • This was fantastic timing that Sam made these.

  • So with that let's have a look at how I styled these gothic crocs.

  • So one day one I styled the crocs with a witch hoodie, a lace up top, a pair of leggings and Some pretty heavy blue makeup.

  • This Alex hasn't seen the light of day since 2010, it's like, I kind of remember her but it's just a statement vague memory, it's a fever dream at this point.

  • This is what you see in your sleep paralysis.

  • What are those, you like them?

  • I mean, I'd have to write, I mean let's not forget who made them feel like a child of santos, a member of the black order give me the stone Mhm And not only do I have the witches hoodie on, but I also have, who would have thought dolls kill and punk Crocs would go together.

  • So well Hansel and Gretel called, they want their antagonists back.

  • Okay.

  • Mhm Fellow tricks list.

  • Strange was a millennial, this is what she'd be wearing conch in fake Conklin and her, which is, well we can't call it function the function.

  • Yeah, let's put down that punching bag.

  • Okay.

  • We've been in target for 10 minutes and I haven't found any Children to boil alive son.

  • I think it's time that you learn who your true parents are.

  • Let him join his people.

  • Yeah, No, this isn't your crew anymore.

  • You've moved on to bigger and better things.

  • I was really, really happy on day one.

  • Honestly.

  • Such comfortable shoes.

  • I did feel slightly awkward and embarrassed because I felt like I looked a little bit over the top.

  • But looking back on the footage, I actually think, I think it kind of killed it.

  • Like I think it looked really, really cool.

  • What are you doing heart?

  • I'm being a punk.

  • No, get down before you hurt yourself Gargoyle.

  • So we were just taking pictures up here.

  • I just heard a little voice go, that's awesome.

  • Okay.

  • From so on day two I still felt like I look ridiculous.

  • I look awkward, The shoes probably looked crazy, but actually if I'd just taken the time to look at my computer and look at the footage on the screen, I would have realized they weren't that weird at all.

  • They're actually really, really cool.

  • So one day two, I wore this adorable skater dress.

  • Now this dress has little di monte straps.

  • This is current mood from dolls Kill.

  • Pretty simple outfit.

  • This one to do the groceries to pick up some tea.

  • I ordered myself a black teeth, expecting it to be black.

  • That doesn't match my aesthetic.

  • What I do love about these shoes is that you have the ease and comfort of regular crocs that you just throw on if you're running down to the shops, but with that extra bling to help you embrace your inner punk rocker when you cried, I'd wipe away your tears.

  • Your, your years.

  • Mhm Oh me.

  • We've spotted some wild crops.

  • They got nothing on mine though.

  • Yeah, nothing on.

  • Although critical.

  • You could probably study these out and they would look just as cool.

  • Wait, that's not very punk grunge of me.

  • How do I, how do I just look as unhappy as possible?

  • Yeah.

  • Have so many questions right now.

  • What is this school is melon?

  • Day three's outfit was a little bit of a weird one.

  • This did look really, really good on dolls kill, but I kind of feel like on me.

  • It looked a little bit awkward.

  • Not the biggest fan.

  • I don't think the croc suited this at all.

  • But to be honest, this is basically the only Gothic slash punk clothing that I own this stuff.

  • The dolls kill gave me.

  • So I just had to wear what I had.

  • Today's aesthetic is washed up swamp mixed with american guard story covered.

  • Do you have any coins?

  • I hold on, check my wallet.

  • Many coins.

  • Nothing, not a cent.

  • Yeah, that sounds like my wallet.

  • That is you and definitely not me.

  • My makeup too because green.

  • Please know what side before Sam seafood for Sam.

  • No, no, no.

  • Why?

  • I guess that this person drink matches my aesthetic helps your ship better too.

  • I was very impressed by Sam's craftsmanship because even by day three, we hadn't lost a single stars or a single spike.

  • Nothing had fallen off.

  • They were still going really strong.

  • So we're very, very proud of Uncle Sam, aren't we?

  • Yes.

  • Day four's outfit was without a doubt my favorite, really channeling my inner violet in this outfit.

  • I feel like these shoes and have a little safer.

  • Everyone.

  • No one knows they're there because the dress is so long.

  • Their eldest son.

  • Yeah.

  • I feel like hella, the goddess of death.

  • Mhm Rest those tie and croc feet.

  • You know what?

  • This has actually been the most comfortable video.

  • I've ever made.

  • My feet have never thanked me more crocs.

  • The alpha in comfort.

  • The other couple of days.

  • I didn't mind so much wearing them in public because it wasn't really very busy.

  • The places that we had to go, but today we're at a very busy shopping center and I don't know why I just, I can't kick the embarrassment.

  • I don't know.

  • I think it's just that we are so trained to hate crocs.

  • We've literally been raised to hate crocs.

  • I can't keep that.

  • It's always in the back of my mind, like people are gonna see them and they're gonna be like, I think, yeah, and day four of wearing just got, how are you feeling house?

  • Pretty pastel princess Feeling.

  • My soul is slowly dying.

  • But you know what?

  • It's weird because like this is just so me, it's so reminiscent of my high school experience.

  • Like my whole high school experience.

  • I was Gothic.

  • I've never let go of the heavy metal music.

  • Like that's something that will always be with me forever.

  • People ask me all the time avenged seven fold slip, not rise against five finger death punch Lincoln park Metallica.

  • It's all good.

  • I will never let go of any of them.

  • But I did let go of wearing black and wearing this again.

  • I do feel really cool.

  • I love spikes.

  • I just, I love that.

  • They, so this is a very strange sensation because it's like, yes, I'm loving the spikes and the skulls, but also that crocs and they look kind of ridiculous, but I feel like if they were a little bit more streamlined, you know, like a little bit tighter to the foot, they wouldn't be so weird, but it's just funny, you know, people see the top with the makeup and the hat and the lovely lacy dress and everything, they're like, wow, and then there, hey, this is quaking walking around, I did think that the crocs looked kind of ridiculous just in my head, I pictured that they looked really, really bad, but again on camera, they actually look really, really good.

  • I feel like that subtlety of them being black shoes means that they don't stick out too much, but then when you look closely and you realize that their spikes on them, but then you realize that crocs, but then you think, ok, crocs are lame, but spikes are cool, so does that balance it out?

  • Is it perfectly balanced as all things should be?

  • Even despite me looking like a punk, I was still recognized, I'm very, very surprised that people recognized me wearing all black.

  • I feel like my trademark look that people recognize before in public is that I'm normally wearing something outrageously pastoral and japanese or korean inspired and people notice me and they're like, oh my God, it's Alex didn't expect anyone to notice me wearing all black, but hey, I guess when you're wearing a giant hat in a shopping center, you do just kind of like, look like a Gothic satellite floating around, I'm so glad that I had the chance to meet some subscribers actually said to the, how did you recognize me?

  • How did you know?

  • And they said that they saw my picture on instagram, all of the shoes and they spotted the shoes.

  • So hey, as much as I like to think that maybe the shoes aren't that attention grabbing, I guess they kind of uh now on the last day, I bet you guys are giving up hope, I bet you thought that you weren't gonna see any pretty pastoral garth.

  • But hey, I came through, I came through with the wish wig in the past, above vibes, you know, I got you.

  • This look was probably my favorite by far.

  • This outfit was given to me by a store called You Nosy.

  • It's a korean store and I think that the crocs worked really, really well with it.

  • It's almost like wearing chunky sneakers with a tennis skirt.

  • I really like that sort of look and this is just kind of a Gothic twist on something like that.

  • Oh Mhm mhm.

  • Would this be a good photo for instagram?

  • Could be kind of wish that you put spikes on the very, very front of them right on the front sticking out.

  • So I could just, you know, super funny, you should say that I was going to, but I just couldn't, I couldn't get my fingers and couldn't get my hands inside the tones if someone's gonna be like, yeah, of course you can reverse kick, kick like a mule Exactly, just back up towards them and back it up, back it up and kick like a mule.

  • This is the sort of thing Punks do read, they sit on escalated right?

  • This is my favorite outfit of all.

  • Like that's it.

  • I'm glad we're done here because this is like a mic drop for me, This outfit.

  • Mic drop, Spike drop, cough drop drop, rock, crook, Crook All in all, I think that punk crocs a fantastic, fantastic idea.

  • Of course they are.

  • For everyone, there's always going to be people that hate crocs no matter how you style them.

  • But then they'll always be hardcore lovers of crocs regardless of how you feel about them.

  • I think we can all agree that it is a pretty creative take on something that was originally just a gardening shoes.

  • Okay, so anyway guys, that's it.
