Design Challenge: The challenge was internal to find a producer with focus on the environment, I wanted it to be located in Europe, no mass production, it was important that it was created by hand by skilled craftsmen.
Research: During my many years in the product design industry I have always looked at the sneakers industry, even when there are many existing designs there is always space for improvements.
Inspiration: I wanted to combine the bold and the elegant feelings in the sneaker design, a sneaker that you can wear both at the reception and on the skating arena.
