A New Way To Canvas The Neighborhood

Any girl in the habit of carrying around a pair of Newbarks—the foldable, super-simple slip-ons designed by sister stylists Marjan and Maryam Malakpour—has undoubtedly experienced the shoes’ foot-saving graces. Trading out a pair of strappy stilettos or mega platforms for Newbarks at the end of a night out is the podiatric equivalent of slaking a thirst. Said girls will thus be pleased to know that the Malakpour sisters have introduced their first summer Newbarks—black or white canvas slip-ons that not only offer sweet arch relief, but make for a promising sandal alternative, too. The canvas styles will debut shortly, alongside a few new leather colorways available now. The metallic rose is already selling out, which just goes to show: Whatever the season, comfort is always in style.
