What do you get when you mix classic sneakers with summer sandals? Nike's Air Huarache Sneakers "changed the face of running footwear forever" when they launched back in 1991, but the 2017 version is totally unrecognisable. As Footwear News reports, the brand has reimagined the sneakers as hybrid sandals, and we're definitely intrigued.

Shoe brands are no strangers to hybrids: We've seen "hootie" shoes, "sneakerdrilles," and other inventive twists, so there's no telling what labels will think of next. If you're interested in Nike's newest design, mark your calendars for the August 3 release date.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 14 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Kate and Meghan stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible.
