Furry Safari Sneakers

The 'Zoo Pack' is Nike's Line of Kids' Safari Sneakers Made from Pony Hair

— October 14, 2015 — Life-Stages
Nike recently released a sneak preview of its new safari-themed sneakers for kids called 'Zoo Pack.' The line uses pony hair for each shoe’s upper design. The fur material provides an authentic quality that elevates the animal theme.

The Zoo Pack shoes are available in three different styles -- for now. These patterns include zebra print, tiger print and a leopard pattern. The soles on each shoe are simple and pure white with a slightly raised heel for the child’s ultimate comfort.

In addition to the simplistic animal patterns, the shoes are branded with a jet black Nike logo directly below the ankle of each shoe. These unique pony hair shoes are set to hit shelves towards the end of this month.
Trend Themes
1. Animal-themed Kids' Shoes - Opportunity to create animal-themed shoes for children using unique and authentic materials, such as pony hair, to bring the animal theme to life.
2. Luxury Kids' Footwear - Opportunity to tap into the luxury kids' footwear market by creating unique and high-quality designs that cater to both kids and parents.
3. Sustainable Kids' Footwear - Opportunity to create sustainable kids' footwear by using eco-friendly materials for the animal prints and designs, appealing to the growing demand for eco-conscious products.
Industry Implications
