Flip-Flobsters Are Lobsters You Wear on Your Feet

Perfect for any occasion (especially formal ones), Flip Flobsters are lobster-inspired slides made in the likeness of the large crustaceans. The unisex footwear is available on Amazon in three colors (green, orange, and fully-steamed red), and comes in six different sizes to ensure everybody who wants to wear lobster sandals, can. It probably goes without saying, but I already ordered a pair in each color before I even started writing this.

There’s no question these will be a hit at any summer cookout, particularly if it’s a seafood cookout. Guests will probably be talking about your Flip Flobsters for weeks! At least that’s what I hope they’ll be talking about, and not how I accidentally set myself on fire being overzealous with the lighter fluid.

Couple the sandals with a pair of lobster claw-inspired grilling mitts, and you’re the total package! The total package being someone who’s becoming an actual lobster, just so we’re clear. Just add some antennas and a tail and I’ll start melting the butter!

Stationery Crustaceans: You’ve Got Crabs

Every desktop could use a little help to keep organized. You could go with a traditional pencil caddy or you could go ahead and get yourself a case of crabs. Stationery Crustaceans are little plastic crabs that are designed to hold small objects in their mighty pincers.

Designed by Japanese artist Ahnitol, the crabs are available over on Etsy’s CrabCakes Crafts for $8.99 each, or $29.49 for a set of four. These pint-sized crabs can hold pens, pencils, business cards,  or even knives in their claws. They measure about 2″ x 1″ and come in red, blue, green, or purple.

If you’ve ever watched The Deadliest Catch, you know that’s way too small. They’re obviously females or juveniles and they’re throwing them back. Actually, I’d like an Alaskan King crab version that I could use to hold my 75″ TV set with. Sadly, I just remembered I have a shellfish allergy and I probably shouldn’t even be looking at these pictures.
