At first glance, these stylish slippers look like rapper Kanye West's popular Yeezy 350 boost shoes.
These stylish slippers, entitled 'SLPRS,' can be worn at home, while travelling or in the office when one is seeking a comfortable yet stylish shoe option. The shoes come in neutral white, gray and black colors and are unisex. They weigh less than 100 grams but "have the ability to insulate feet," making them perfect at-home shoes during the winter. The foam sole and plus body of these fashion-forward shoes ensure that they optimize comfort.
The SLPRS were designed to be the "go-to" shoe for situations in which comfort is the ultimate goal, but style is also desired.
