Consumers around the world are working from home and staying in their dwelling in the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, so brands are taking notice with new products like the Balenciaga Home Sandal.
The casual footwear style comes hot on the heels of the crocodile-embossed slides released last month and are characterized by their high-quality leather construction. A velcro strap across the forefoot can be repositioned to further customize the shoe's fit, while the padded footbed provides enhanced comfort when lounging or working from home.
The Balenciaga Home Sandal is priced at $495, and is likely to be a hit amongst fashion-forward consumers who are keen to show off their spring style but are confined to their home to help flatten the curve.
