The exhibition was unveiled at the [Opera City Art Gallery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/opera-beds) in Tokyo and the aforementioned sandals gravitated attention with its vibrant yellow hue. It is a Lunarlite-made sandal silhouette and it sits on a ridged footbed foundation. Additional details include the perforated accents at the toe area which is also seen with an upper strap and an impact absorbing sole area. The entire design is one-piece and branding details are debossed at the midfoot, showcasing the [Swoosh](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-dn-sneaker) and the rear features "NIKE." Rounding out the entire Solarsoft sandals are light brown straps reminiscent of the previous [Mars Yard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/myprotein-twix-impact-whey-protein) collaboration between the duo. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.4/10 - Popularity: 66% | Activity: 58% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Life](https://www.trendhunter.com/life) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Sporty Sandals with Perforated Toe:** Opportunity for footwear companies to incorporate perforated detailing into their sportswear designs. - **Vibrant Colorways:** Potential for brands to experiment with bold, vibrant colors in their footwear offerings. - **One-piece Design:** Opportunity for companies to explore seamless and one-piece footwear designs. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Athletic Footwear:** Sporty sandals with perforated toe and light brown straps can be marketed to athletes and fitness enthusiasts. - **Fashion:** Vibrant colorways of sporty sandals can contribute to trends in fashion footwear. - **Technology:** Incorporating impact-absorbing sole areas in sportswear designs can benefit not just athletes but also people with joint problems. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Denim Cut-Out Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/air-max-koko.md) - [Roped Collaborative Hybrid Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/retropy-sandals.md) - [Retro Sneaker-Inspired Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gt2160-sandal.md) - [Lifestyle Foam-Based Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/new-balance-sandal.md) - [Dynamic Neutral-Toned Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sanuk-1.md) - [Neutral Urban Summer Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shinjuku-sandal.md) - [Split-Toe Barefoot Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vivobiome-tabi-gen-01-sandal.md) - [Coquette Hybrid Sneaker Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelquantum-360-viii-2.md) - [Hybrid Laced Sneaker Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beach-gazelle.md)
