Travel Shoe Trend Spotting: Lace Up Sneakers that Become Sandals
August 5, 2008
Is this the Future of Great Travel Footwear?
With flick of a zip, these Nat-2 shoes convert to open-toed sandals when the temp get unbearable on those hot summer days.
Nat-2’s new transforming shoe could help save time deciding what shoe to wear. The Nat-2 design looks like a regular pair of canvas shoes, similar to popular designs by the Converse brand. But when you want to give your feet a bit of fresh air you can unzip the sole to reveal a pair of sandals. The canvas top can easily be folded up and slipped into a bag.
With more than 20 different designs available, you can mix and match soles with different uppers.
Owner Peter Pearce says:
“The concept of the shoes is absolutely fantastic - and perfect for the summer. You get two pairs of shoes in one. It’s early days for us but we’re confident the Nat-2 shoes are going to be a big hit.”
By taking one base and various tops you can save weight and gain more space while traveling the world.
