About Guang 첼시 부츠는
Guang은 소가죽과 양가죽으로 수작업으로 제작됩니다. 솔기에 반사 바인딩을 꿰매어 미래지향적인 느낌을 줍니다. 눈길을 끄는 기능으로 작동하는 뒷면의 사용자 정의 가능한 반사 문자는 어둠 속에서도 가시성을 향상시킵니다. 백 스트랩은 부츠스트랩의 길이와 너비를 넓혀 편안한 착용감을 제공합니다. 비브람의 디스트레스드 아웃솔은 건장한 미적 감각, 뛰어난 접지력, 뛰어난 편안함을 제공합니다. 뾰족한 발가락의 좁은 실루엣과 함께 밝은 네온 옐로우는 반항적이면서도 기능적인 디자인을 제공합니다.

- Design Challenge

- Research
- Research was mainly focused on Chelsea boots history, construction and materials.
- Inspiration
- Chelsea boots although classy, have historically garnered a darker, more conventional design. Guang is Chinese for 'light', it aimed to bring a novel bright, futuristic vantage point to the boot while maintaining its functional features of durability and ease of wear. Guang boasts clean geometric lines, featuring the contradictory of time consuming craftsmanship and boundary challenging philosophy. The bright neon yellow alongside the pointy-toe narrow silhouette delivers a sexy, rebellious yet aesthetically pleasing design.
- Project Duration
- The project started in September 2019 in San Francisco and finished in November 2019.
- Operation Flow
- The main material used on the body of the boot is a durable cow hide leather with a saturated fluorescent coating. The interior of the boots is made from lamb skin allowing for a soft feel on the foot as well as flexibility to stretch to fit each foot as time goes by. Reflective details improve visibility in the dark, when hit with flash or car light, it will light up. The painted over then deliberate distressed outsole has been sanded down to fit the shoe shape, it gives superior traction and greater comfort, which are unique for high-heel Chelsea boots.
