The New Creepers from Fenty Puma and Rihanna Look Like Ballet Slippers

After releasing a number of new Creepers, such as the sleek black and white leather versions and the velvet holiday pack, Fenty Puma and Rihanna have teamed up again to offer fresh versions that's perfect for summer. In addition to the new Creepers, the brand recently came out with the Jelly Slides and the Mint Fur Slides.

Unlike the other Creeper models, the latest version leaves most of one's feet exposed, making them best suited to consumers who are in warm and dry climates. On the backs of the heels, large laces are featured, so that they can be tied up the legs to look like ballet slippers. Corresponding with the dancer-inspired design are two neutral feminine colorways: light pink and beige.
