Futuristic sneaker and overshoe, combining blades and various bindings, 2023.

Part of the graduation collection for @artezuniversityofthearts, based on the idea that innovation is formed in the absence of rules and restrictions. Suspended from the conventions of what a sneaker needs to be while maintaining its essence. An idea hand-crafted from passion for footwear, car culture and science fiction.

Giordano: ‘Innovation is formed in the absence of rules and restrictions. What if a shoe could take on this role? It could become a way of repositioning how we think of our physical abilities, footwear expectations, as well as a tool for self-expression, suspended from the conventions of what a sneaker needs to be while maintaining its essence.’
