The idea behind this Line is to fuse Yohji construction and pattern experitise with adidas skate culture and sneaker credibility.

The concept was to revise the derby pattern, and give it space to fray through time. Consumer buys a perfect shoe that unravels the more you wear it, showing it’s full beauty.

The process : I started by creating a softer look and feel with a shorter toe and a more closed eyestay.

After that I jumped to the Atelier to start experimenting with the canvas material and came up with new lace contruction that would give the material opportunity to fray.
