burn rubber

behold, the nike sneaker wedge!

by faran krentcil

This spring, we fell (hard) for Nike's collaboration with Liberty, specifically their floral-print sneaker wedges. It was zany but gorgeous, and retailed for $120 - costly, but not insanely prohibitive, like the $800 Isabel Marant sneakers, or even the $500 Marc by Marc Jacobs ones. (Though of course, we're obsessed with those, too.)

Predictably, those Nike wedges sold out faster than a Katniss vs. Bella wrestling match, but the smart cookies in the shoe kingdom concocted a summer surprise: A new pair of navy-and-white wedges. They're also $120, still available in almost every size, and - if we're being honest - work with more outfits than the swirly red-and-white Liberty kicks that you can't buy anymore, anyway. If you're into these shoes, you should probably act fast: Here they are on Urban Outfitters, available in every size (for now).
