It's not often that ballet and track intersect, but ASICS and NYC-BASED lifestyle brand GOHAR have linked up to do the unthinkable with the GEL-DS Trainer SP, a ballet flat infused with speedy sneaker charm.

Inspired by track spikes from the mid-aughts, the mixy flat blends the sporty aura of a full-on sprinter with the dainty excellence of a classic ballet flat, an arena ASICS has gotten quite comfortable with recently.

From the chromed-out GEL-DS Trainer SP to the dainty ASICS' Mary Jane, ASICS' loves a good technical flat.

But the GEL-DS Trainer SP flat is by far the most athletic take on the genre. If ASICS' ballet flats were Spice Girls, the GEL-DS Trainer SP would be the sporty one.

Funny enough, the combination of ballet and track isn't even the most curious part of the collab, as this dainty flat is pierced up like your local Claire's on a Saturday afternoon.

In addition to its Miu Miu-minded double laces and pearlized lace charm, the GEL-DS Trainer SP sports several pieces of body jewelry across the upper. Gnarly.

In the high school cafeteria of life, this flat fits in everywhere. It's punk, it's girly pop and also a total jock.

Interdisciplinary footwear is SO in right now.
