Ahlgrens bilar, Sweden’s most beloved candy car since 1953, is taking an unexpected detour—into the world of fashion. In a playful and nostalgic collaboration with Stockholm-based artist Bucktron, the brand is launching a hand-crafted, limited-edition shoe inspired by its iconic pastel candy cars.

Unveiled during Stockholm Fashion Week, the oversized sliders come in soft shades of pink, green, and white, the signature colors of the classic treat and arrive packaged in a giant, custom-designed replica of the original candy bag.

Bucktron, known for his sculptural work and previous collaborations with Acne Studios, Byredo, and Axel Arigato, brings a surreal and avant-garde twist to the concept. “Transforming a candy into a wearable object felt delightfully absurd,” he says. “It’s been pure joy from start to finish.”

The shoes will be available in a limited run starting June 5th for 2,000 SEK, exclusively at ahlgrensskor.se.

Because, as the brand cheekily puts it: everything gets better with bilar—even your shoes.
