There’s a new optical illusion that is sweeping the web — and it’s just like *that* dress all over again. 

It all started when Nicole Coulthard, a social media user, uploaded a photo of the sneakers to Twitter, asking her followers what colour the shoes were. And needless to say, social media went berserk. 

Some people saw the vintage pair of sneakers as pink with white laces, while others saw a grey pair of shoes with teal laces. 

There were also some people who said that they saw the shoes in one colour, but that it changed later. Eventually, the owner of the shoes posted a message explaining what colour the shoes really were. 

“The real colours are pink and white,” she wrote. It’s not the first time an optical illusion like this has bamboozled the digital space. 

You may recall a dress causing quite the stir a few years ago. Some people believed the dress was white and gold, while other people were seeing black and blue.
