The style is a subtle variation in the mens oxford silhouette: a larger collar opening, a lower collar, and a vamp that extends over the eyelets for a stronger touch of organic lines. The vamp will have a story of durability as the material contrasts the neighboring quarter.
For material possibilities, I'm thinking of utilizing the gamut of leathers and faux leathers with natural textures.
The color palette, as cliche or overused as it may sound, is an urban jungle inspiration--combining timeless rugged earth tones with deep hues referring to rich, natural organics. The goal is to pronounce the rich expression in sartorialism (color, materials, subtle details,...) on an everyday contemporary silhouette of a vulcanized shoe. Tough but slick. Bold but clean. Ok, you get it (I hope!)
