RE:BORN CLOUD WALKER

Category: Footwear

Competitions: China Mainland

本次参赛作品《RE:BORN 循环云履》,紧扣 “真皮,真自我” 赛事主题,融合东方美学、先锋造型与可持续设计理念。设计汲取中式祥云、传统折纸、冰晶几何与敦煌色彩元素,经过创意拆解与重构,打造出棱角分明、线条灵动的立体鞋型,跳出传统鞋履设计框架,彰显个人原创审美。作品主体选用环保皮革,保留了真皮细腻肌理与柔韧特性。我运用折叠、拼接等工艺塑造折纸质感的鞋面,充分发挥真皮易塑形的优势,搭配海洋回收塑料制成的再生 TPU 外底,冷暖材质碰撞凸显真皮独有的温润质感。整鞋采用模块化分体结构,分为真皮鞋面、支撑骨架、中底与可拆卸外底四大部分,支持部件单独更换与回收再生,践行循环环保理念。在我看来,独一无二的真皮肌理正如真实的自我,本设计拒绝跟风潮流,以真皮为载体,结合传统、创新与低碳理念,完整表达个人设计态度,诠释赛事核心内涵。 Entitled RE:BORN Cloud Walker, this entry follows the competition theme Genuine Leather, True Self, combining oriental aesthetics, avant-garde styling and sustainable design. Inspired by Chinese cloud patterns, traditional origami, geometric crystal shapes and Dunhuang color schemes, the design reinterprets classic elements to create a three-dimensional shoe with distinctive outlines, breaking conventional design styles and presenting original aesthetic ideas.The upper is made of eco-friendly genuine leather, which retains the natural texture and flexibility of leather. By adopting folding and splicing techniques, the shoe features origami-style surface. The recycled TPU outsoles made from marine plastic waste form a striking contrast with leather, highlighting its warm and delicate tactile feel.The shoe adopts a modular structure consisting of leather upper, support frame, midsole and detachable outsole. Worn parts can be replaced separately and all components are recyclable, realizing circular design. To me, the unique grain of genuine leather stands for the true self. Staying away from blind trend-chasing, this work integrates tradition, innovation and environmental concepts. Using genuine leather as the medium, it fully conveys my design philosophy and interprets the competition theme perfectly.
