Imagined this pair during first lockdown at my mom’s place, unemployed, craving to create footwear pieces.
2.5 years later it is released today. Only 30 pairs worldwide. Thank you life !
Thanks for the trust:
@alltriangles@thenorthface@maveria74@jmdjian@paraboot_official
Here are the first 1/1 prototypes I designed for @paraboot_official to celebrate the 80th anniversary of their iconic Michael in 2025.
The «Paraboot for Paraboot» inline collection was then declined from these initial versions, and launched through a series of events around the world this year.
These shoes are not for sale, but the final capsule is!Some pairs are still available on Paraboot website and selected retail partners.
Thanks again to the whole Paraboot team for their trust.
I was asked to design a capsule for @paraboot of 8 versions of the Michael to celebrate the icon’s 80 years anniversary.
It has been a true privilege to work on one of the few true footwear icons out there.
Each version represents one decade of life of the Michael from 1945 until today.
The collection will soon be available worldwide and will be released through events in:
- NYC: @ven.space
- Brighton @peggsandson
- Berlin: @hhvclothing
- Paris: @royalcheeseparis
- Copenhagen: @norsestore
- Milano: La Ferramenta / Candiani
