The oldest shoe in the world was discovered buried in a cave in Armenia. It is more then 5,500 years old and is so well preserved that its lace is still intact.
A lace?

Some objects have its decoration so overwhelming that you cannot really see the important part. I call it - a "golden frame" rule. The truth is most of the time there isn't that much to look at so the "screaming" packaging attracts attention to the object, product or even a person which otherwise would be unnoticed. It's a cheap trick...

I saw Response Trail on referee's feet during Japan : Paraguay game. This shoe from the begin was inspired by PREDATOR X soccer shoe. It's great that it found it's way to the soccer field. Somehow...
More photos of the Response Trail 16 here.

I cam across this Zanotti shoe today. He designed small shoe collection for Vionnet. This one I particularly like because it's exactly how bartie women's shoe would look like - classic in proportions but "designy" in terms of colors or details.

Shoes, shoes, shoes... here are few photos I took in Bologna. Boutique's windows with spring-summer 2010 collections. These type of shoes are not area of my expertise but when you are in Italy point of view can change. So lets say... I'm working to improve my weak points ;)

Previous model was quite successful. It even got best design award from Runner's World voters (Thank you by the way). It wasn't an easy job to make this one even better. 18th got new FORMOTION unit on the heel which is slightly lighter. Extra forefoot groove for smoother toe off transition and more supportive upper. Tooling was changed to injection so it is a bit harder then 17th (but it will last longer).

2009 is almost over so it's time to update the portfolio. I had few models on the market introduced this year. One of them is the trail version of the RESPONSE. 16th edition. I had a chance to design last 3 of them and I think this one is the best. |
