Nike Heels, For When You Have Practice At 4 And Date Night At 5

I’m not a fashion icon nor do I have even above average fashion sense. I mean, I don’t think I have bad taste but I’m also aware of the fact I wear a maximum of four different outfits and my Vans have a hole in the left toe. I honestly can’t say whether or not I’m currently wearing matching socks. Am I an authority on style? No. Am I qualified to criticize the work of legitimate designers who make my salary in a week? Also no. Am I still going to? Yes.

Nike is one of the best athletic wear companies out there, in my experience. They make stuff that’s comfortable and durable and I don’t feel like a potato when I accidentally look at myself in the gym mirror, plus they’ve partnered with activists like Colin Kaepernick and I respect that.

And now designer Ancuta Sarca has elevated Nike’s iconic shoes, literally, by about two inches.

She combined running shoes with high heels to create a sort of shoe-mullet situation, with sports in the front and party in the back.

She said she wanted to give these shoes “a completely new function” which, to her credit, she definitely did.

I’m just not sure what that function is.

Haute couture penalty kicks??

Being able to kind of run but like not really???

Abiding by a 5-star restaurant’s formal dress code but just barely???

I don’t know. In any case, what I do know is I will probably never be able to afford them.
