These sandals are taking toes out to a new level.
The internet is divided over the barely there unique footwear featured in the Chanel Cruise 2027 collection by creative director Matthieu Blazy. The Biarritz, France, show occurred this week and attracted A-Listers including A$AP Rocky, Michaela Coel and Nicole Kidman.
The luxury fashion brand showcased a shoe that only covers the heel, resulting in an unconventional barefoot look. Vogue staffers shared their initial reaction to the piece, some of whom were intrigued and pointed out how Blazy is leaning into the fantasy of it all.
Chanel's barefoot sandals go viral.
"What a cheeky, fun idea. Blazy isn’t trying to convince anyone that these are practical, but sometimes the whimsy is the entire point," one said. Another had a different opinion: "Fear struck me—I’m not pedicure-ready! My toes must stay securely ensconced, for now."
Once it hit the timeline, social media users had fun with it and gave their unfiltered opinions.

Internet reacts to Chanel sandals
Content creator Remi Bader went viral by creating her own DIY version of the designer sandals. In the video, she wrapped strings around her ankle and put what appears to be cardboard on her heels, then went outside.
"So excited because I get to go out tonight in my new Chanel shoes. Nobody has them. They're not even in the store yet," she joked. "They are sick, sick, sick."
Other people on X chimed in: "At that point, just go bare feet," one user wrote. Someone else added thoughts: "The thong underwear of footwear."
Others seemingly cozied up to the idea: "Half-shoe, full drama! Those gold fringe details are giving me life. Chanel making barefoot couture!"
