This shoe was created by Arizona-based shoe designer and fanatic Randy Lucas. The design for the shoe uses aspects of Nike’s iconic AM1 such as the white midsole and Air sole unit. The brown suede upper is that of a Minnentonka Moccasin. These unique shoes exquisitely combine the appeal of both [comfortable native footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-balance-530-mules) and the undeniable ease of Nike's classic sneakers.

While the shoes run at about $300 per pair, the price might be worth the investment. The shoes are currently available for purchase from Randy. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.7/10 - Popularity: 97% | Activity: 96% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 30% men, 70% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Fashion-practicality-coziness:** The trend of combining fashion, practicality, and coziness in footwear opens up opportunities for creating innovative and stylish designs. - **Custom Shoes:** The growing popularity of custom shoes presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for designers to create unique and personalized footwear. - **Indoor Slippers:** The trend of using sneakers as indoor slippers creates an opportunity for brands to develop hybrid designs that are comfortable for indoor wear and stylish for outdoor use. ### Who This Affects Most - **Footwear Industry:** The footwear industry can leverage the trend of sneaker moccasin hybrids to offer customers a wider range of stylish and versatile shoe options. - **Fashion Industry:** The fashion industry can tap into the trend of custom shoes to provide customers with personalized and one-of-a-kind footwear designs. - **Home Goods Industry:** The home goods industry can explore the market of indoor slippers by creating hybrid designs that combine comfort and style for indoor and outdoor use. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Soft Brown Chunky Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/velvet-brown.md) - [Trail-Ready Hiking Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-plus-hiker-boot.md) - [Luxury Slip-On Hybrids](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-jordan-mule-loafer.md) - [Heritage Dress Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-rk61.md) - [Slip-On Sneaker-Inspired Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nike-air-force-1-lover-wilds.md) - [Vintage-Inspired Summer Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-muse-2.md) - [Hybrid Slip-On Textural Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/m2002na.md) - [Hybrid Retooled Lifestyle Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-waffle-racer.md) - [Hybrid Breathable Sneaker Loafers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1906l-magnet.md)
