All summer, the sportswear brand has been releasing [boldly colored iterations of the slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-slide-2), however to close the season off, the brand is printing its iconic 'Swoosh' logo on the sandal in a clean, metallic white variation. The deconstructed slide features a comfortable synthetic upper band, which is both comfortable and lightweight. The pearly white shoes sparkle in certain lights, eliciting a sense of whimsical elegance that's enough to make any fashionista jealous. Perfect for wearing around the house or spending a night on the town, the metallic white Benassi Slides are a versatile staple. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.3/10 - Popularity: 91% | Activity: 90% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Seasonless Metallic Sandals:** Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Develop seasonless metallic sandals that can be worn year-round, offering a flexible and stylish alternative for consumers. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Footwear:** Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Integrate metallic details and materials into footwear designs, creating stylish options for consumers looking for unique and eye-catching shoes. - **Fashion:** Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Experiment with metallic accents and finishes in fashion accessories, offering consumers versatile and glamorous options that can elevate any outfit. - **Sportswear:** Disruptive Innovation Opportunity: Incorporate metallic elements into sportswear designs, providing athletes with stylish and performance-enhancing apparel for training or competition. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Cool Blue-Tonal Summer Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/blue-force.md) - [Modern Recovery Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mind-001.md) - [Black Stealthy Tonal Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/offcourt-slides.md) - [Stealthy Red-Tonal Sporty Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-slide-2.md) - [Monochromatic Metallic Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-90-usa.md) - [Cozy Fur Platform Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-elevation-slide.md) - [Slip-On Metallic Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-superfly-moc.md) - [Women's Sportswear Flip Flops](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-calm-flip-flops.md) - [Camo-Patterned Summer Slides](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/realtree-edition.md)
