Nat2 has come up with a clever [convertible design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sneaker-loafer) for their sneakers, or should I say their slippers. The sneakers come with a [zipper hidden behind the shoe](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-sndr) which can be unzipped to transform your shoes into a pair of comfy slippers.

It’s a dandy innovation if you are traveling and want to carry only a single pair in your luggage. The sole and upper half of the shoe can also be mixed and matched with other combinations, which means when you buy two pairs you are actually getting four!
