Grillo's Pickles Pickle Slides are Available While Supplies Last
Michael Hemsworth — May 28, 2026 — Fashion
Grillo's Pickles Pickle Slides are an unexpected footwear style created by the pickle brand as part of its initiative to catch the attention of consumers with a penchant for branded merch. The footwear is being offered exclusively at a pop-up shop in New York City on the lower east side where visitors can pickle up a pair of the pickle-inspired slip-on shoes for $75 per pair. The footwear features an unorthodox design with its oversized, green-hued profile that looks like a large pickle and is finished with the brand's logo on the sole.
Grillo's Pickles Pickle Slides will only be on offer at the pop-up starting June 12, 2026 while supplies last and are expected to sell out.
