No matter how you feel about Crocs, you cannot deny the brand has a remarkable talent for finding partners that make you stop and say, “wait, actually… that works.” We’ve seen Krispy Kreme clogs dripping in donut-glazed energy, Windows XP nostalgia packed into a wearable throwback, and Ghostbusters uniforms distilled down to clog form. Every time I think Crocs has peaked its collab game, another partnership resets the bar. This time, they’ve linked up with LEGO for the Creativity Clogs collection, and this one lands a little differently.

The appeal is almost embarrassingly obvious in hindsight. Both LEGO and Crocs are built around the same core philosophy: take something simple, make it endlessly customizable, and let people go wild with it. LEGO gave us the stud system; Crocs gave us Jibbitz holes. Jibbitz charms are basically a wearable LEGO build. The two brands have been spiritually aligned for decades without anyone thinking to actually put them together, and the fact that it took this long feels like a design oversight that’s now been corrected.

Designers: LEGO x Crocs

The collection spans several configurations. The base Creativity Clog starts at $79.99, keeping things relatively clean with colorful LEGO bricks along the sole and a Jibbitz-ready upper waiting to be personalized. There is also a Kids’ Creativity Clog at $59.99, because LEGO is a multigenerational brand whether anyone admits it or not.

The Masterbrand Creativity Clog at $89.99 is the one that goes all in. It arrives with 12 LEGO brick Jibbitz charms already loaded onto the upper and around the sole, plus a LEGO Minifigure tucked into the box. That detail genuinely made me smile. It is the kind of considered touch that separates a real collaboration from a brand simply slapping a logo on an existing product.

The Midnight Garden Creativity Clog takes the same design language in a different direction. Where the other colorways lean into LEGO’s signature primary palette, this version opts for a darker, more subdued aesthetic that feels almost grown-up by comparison. It is the right pick for someone who wants to quietly signal their appreciation for the collab without committing to the full crayon-box energy of the others.

Visually, these clogs strike a balance I did not expect. The brick texture runs along the sole without overtaking the whole shoe, so you are not walking around in something that looks like a toy store exploded on your feet. It is restrained enough to wear in public while still being obviously, joyfully LEGO. The Jibbitz-ready holes mean you can keep building on top of the base, swapping in dedicated LEGO charm packs depending on your mood. That is exactly the kind of open-ended customization that makes both brands tick.

The LEGO Group and Crocs announced their multi-year global partnership in January 2026, and the Creativity Clogs dropped on March 19, with LEGO Insiders getting a three-day head start. Certain sizes sold out quickly, which tells you all you need to know about the appetite for this one.

My honest read is that this collaboration is smarter than its predecessor. The original LEGO Brick Clogs were built for viral moments and display shelves. Giant foam bricks make a statement, but they do not go anywhere useful. The Creativity Clogs are the real follow-through, translating LEGO as a design language into something you would actually wear to a theme park, a farmers market, or around the house on a slow Tuesday. The playfulness is baked in without demanding you commit to a costume to participate.

That said, $89.99 for a pair of Crocs is a price point worth sitting with, even if the included Minifigure does technically sweeten the deal. Crocs collabs have always commanded a premium over the core classics, and by now the brand’s audience is accustomed to paying for the concept as much as the shoe itself. Whether the LEGO x Crocs Creativity Clog earns its place in your rotation will probably depend on how much real estate your inner kid still occupies. For a lot of people, that answer is quite a bit of space.

Ergonomic keyboards have a reputation problem. They work, technically, but most of them look like they were designed by someone who’d never sat through a full workday. The splits are too wide, the angles too aggressive, and the learning curve steep enough to make you miss the flat keys you’ve always known. Plenty of people give it a try and quietly go back to what they had before.

Razer’s answer is the Pro Type Ergo, its first wireless split ergonomic keyboard, built with that frustration clearly in mind. Rather than throwing you into a radical new layout, it’s tuned to feel approachable from the very first keystroke. The split gently angles your hands into a more natural alignment, easing the sideways reach that makes most forearms ache by mid-afternoon, without asking you to completely relearn how to type.

Designer: Razer

One of the more interesting layout choices is the dual “B” key arrangement, with one on each side of the split, along with an extra backspace tucked between two space bars. The idea is that both thumbs take on common actions, so you’re reaching less and crossing your fingers over each other less throughout the day. It’s a small shift that makes more sense the longer you sit with it.

The keycaps are ultra-low-profile, fitted with subtle spherical indents that nudge your fingertips into the right position without you having to think about it. Sound-dampening layers and tuned stabilizers underneath keep the typing noise low enough for open offices and video calls. Shorter key travel also means less physical effort per keystroke, which doesn’t sound like much until you’ve been at your desk for six hours straight.

The wrist rest is permanently integrated rather than removable, which turns out to be a feature rather than a limitation. It’s just always there, supporting your wrists from the moment you sit down without any extra setup. A 10-degree base slope sets the starting angle, and five tilt positions, from flat to seven degrees forward or back, let you dial in the fit depending on your desk height and preference.

A Razer Command Dial lets you assign up to eight functions, expandable to 100 via Razer Synapse, while five macro keys along the left side keep your most-used shortcuts within easy reach. There’s also a dedicated AI Prompt Master key that handles things like drafting emails, summarizing blocks of text, or kicking off a research query in a single press, without pulling you out of whatever window you’re already in.

Connectivity spans Razer HyperSpeed Wireless at 2.4 GHz, three Bluetooth profiles, and USB-C wired mode, with support for up to five devices total. Razer Chroma RGB backlighting covers 19 customizable zones and can be switched off entirely for offices where animated key lighting might not go over well. The design is clean and understated, a far cry from the aggressively lit gaming keyboards Razer is better known for.

The Pro Type Ergo retails at $189.99, about $30 more than Razer’s conventional Pro Type Ultra from 2021. For anyone who types for a living and has been quietly working around the ache of a standard keyboard layout, that extra cost starts to feel a lot less significant once you’ve spent a full day on something that actually fits how your hands are supposed to sit.
