Microsoft Launches Nostalgic Windows XP Crocs for Employees
Microsoft is celebrating its 50th birthday by making special Crocs that look like the old Windows XP computer screen.
These shoes are light blue and green, just like the famous "Bliss" wallpaper that many computers used to have.
The Crocs come with little charms, including the old MSN butterfly and Clippy, the helper.
Only Microsoft employees can buy them first, then everyone else can buy them.
Also, Windows 10 users should know their computers won't get updates after October 2025, so they may have to get Windows 11 or pay for extra updates.
Microsoft released special-edition Crocs inspired by Windows XP to celebrate its 50th anniversary.
The Crocs feature a light blue upper, green soles, and six themed Jibbitz charms.
The footwear is inspired by the iconic "Bliss" wallpaper of the Windows XP desktop.
The Crocs are initially available to Microsoft employees via internal orders at $80.
Buyers will receive a matching drawstring bag with the "Bliss" background image.
