Antoine Boudin
The starting point of this shoe was the observation of the joints of the foot.
4 lines correspond to these joints. So I wanted to design a shoe that respects them, a structure close to the foot while leaving the comfort for the toes. Although very technical, I also wanted a shoe very elegant and simple.
The concept is a “chausson” and a sole made in one piece in a recycled plastic and from sustainable development. This moulded piece has lines where the thickness of material is reduced to the corresponding lines of the joints. Around this shoe a skin in leather is added with laces to keep the foot on the top and back of the shoe as the shoe boat.
The shoe is monochrome; his identity is by its design, its characteristics and functional lines, and especially by the contrast of these materials.
