It is a bizarre silhouette that also transforms into a pair of wearable slide sandals. Essentially, at a glance, the BWD High is a dynamic slip-on design that looks like a pair of chunky shoes.

It is releasing on the brand's website on September 24th and it may be one of its most approachable shoe designs until one gets a closer look at the finer components. From an aerial view of the shoes, either backward or forward, they can be worn can be seen quite clearly. There are branding details on the insoles done in black to stand out against the blue base.
