"It may not go down in history as one of fashion&amp;#x27;s great love affairs (along with the likes of leather and lace, Dolce &amp;amp; Gabbana, or jeans and T-shirts), but we&amp;#x27;re guessing the pants + boots combo that debuted on the Herm&amp;amp;eacute;s runway earlier this week has, at the very least, the star power of a steamy, inappropriate Hollywood fling that nobody can tear their voyeuristic eyes away from... Feast your eyes on these, dolls! For the first Herm&amp;amp;eacute;s collection designed by new creative director Christophe Lemaire, he created a hybrid between pants and boots (we&amp;#x27;ve heard some editors refer to them as &amp;quot;poots&amp;quot;--ew!) that are either a remarkably genius solution to consolidating your getting-dressed process, or, um, one of the silliest hybrids since the toilet paper wedding dress (I&amp;#x27;m leaning towards the latter). They may look like a perfectly normal pair of leather pants topping off a perfectly normal pair of leather boots, but what you&amp;#x27;re seeing here is actually one continuous piece of material that manages to encompass both. Sign up for our style newsletter and get the best of our fashion blog, delivered straight to your inbox! There are a few obvious logistical issues here: How the heck would you clean these things? What do you do if you unsuspectingly wear them to a Japanese restaurant or a party in a home with a shoes-off rule? And um, heaven forbid you rock a pair of these to the mall on a day when you plan to try on new kicks! What do you gals make of the new Herm&amp;amp;eacute;s pants-boots hybrid? Is this a solution searching for a problem, a ridiculous bit of impracticality, or a hilarious nod to fashion&amp;#x27;s ever-expanding functionality? Would you ever wear a pair? Discuss!
