The "Beautiful" Nike Sneakers Everyone Purchased in 2017

The number of cool, covetable sneakers to hit the market this year was overwhelming, to say the least. Practically every day a fresh new style, cool color, or collaboration presented itself, and Nike sneakers were undoubtedly at the top of the aforementioned covetable heap.
Naturally, much of our sneaker inspiration in 2017 came in the form of stylish celebrities like model (and Victoria's Secret Angel) Romee Strijd. This summer, Strijd stepped out in a pair of woven Nikes that instantly caught our eye. We were even more intrigued when we saw that Nordstrom's description of the sneakers referred to them as "beautiful."
Soon after Strijd wore them and we called them out, the sneakers sold out in her pretty, versatile tan hue. But luckily Nike has since released them in a slew of other pretty colors like pink, navy, and gray, and we highly suggest getting a pair for yourself while you still can.
