Nike Are Going Seriously High-Tech On Your Next Sneaks
What's in store: Nike recently filed for two patents that shed light on what the company has up its sleeve. According to Quartz, the first patent document reveals that the brand is working on a sneaker with a built-in activity tracker. "The patent suggests it would perform many of the functions of other wearables, monitoring a runner’s distance, speed, and calories burned," Quartz reports. "Nike could use that information to map a run route and allow you to set different goals." The other patent document concerns new, highly detailed methods of customising sneakers—even down to the pattern and type of material. It's safe to say we'll be waiting with bated breath for these ideas to come to life! In the meantime, click here to shop Nike. [Quartz]

Erin got her start as aBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing intern over 13 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of Associate Director of Fashion News (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
