Quriky Cutout Summer Shoes

The Nike Air Moc Sandal is One-Of-A-Kind

Nike is gearing up for summer with the new Nike Air Moc Sandal. The Nike Air Moc Sandal is easily one of the strangest sandals I have ever seen as it is designed like a sandal, but shares traits with the Air Moc.

The Nike Air Moc Sandal has a push-button drawstring that loosens and tightens the shoe, just like the Air Moc. Both of the shoes are lightweight, although the Air Moc Sandal seems to be more lightweight, thanks to its cut-out panels than its featherweight materials. All similarities aside, the shoes are definitely not what you would expect from Nike, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I love stompin' in my Air Force Ones as much as the next guy, but it is nice to see Nike take a different direction with its designs every now and then.
