SENAI CLASS PROJECT

The idea for this project was to use a classic style shoes and recreate it by giving a new perspective. I chose to redesign a classical Derby footwear with a sportstyle look, mixing leather with breathable materials such as mesh. This was a very challenging project because I not only had to design but also cut, sew and manufacture the final product. This gave me a more indepth view of footwear production and how designers and factories must have a clear communication to produce the best product possible. The sole ended up a bit too high and heavy when compared to the original idea, so this is something I would change if I was to do this project again. I had a lot of fun during the process and was able to understand more of the production process of a sneaker.
