在过去的几年里,鞋履界的顶峰一直被Sneaker独占,限量版、限定版、球员版和特殊版带来高昂的价格。然而,一股“橡胶热潮”正从时尚之都巴黎蔓延至全球时尚中心。
这是一款独一无二的橡胶鞋,从法国巴黎高端品牌both而来。这款鞋在过去一年中迅速席卷全球时尚界,不仅登陆了时装周,还进入了Selfridges、Antonioli、Opening Ceremony等知名精品店。
传统上,橡胶只是一种常见材料,但both赋予它非凡意义,以探索其可塑性为核心。与夸张的大型Sneaker相比,橡胶鞋更注重修饰脚型和拉长腿部线条。天然橡胶覆盖在不同部位,使得每双鞋都增添了一种别致艺术形态。
虽然both保持低调,但它以其技艺和心力所发挥出的艺术价值,让人难以忽视。此外,这些成功突围的设计不会是空穴来风,它们必须与成千上万同类竞争者竞争,只有独特性才能脱颖而出。
only用了一年时间,both就开创了全新的设计风格,即便难以用一个形容词归纳这种感觉。just like the meaning hidden behind both's name, it's a exploration of balance from all sides.
Both品牌虽2016年才发布第一季产品,但在此领域已驾轻就熟。they使用天然橡胶作为题材,将鞋子打造为第二层肌肤概念,并投入三十年的研究时间对各种可能性进行探索。Combining high elasticity natural rubber with leather materials creates shoes with high recognition.
