本作品名为《壤循》，以大地原生肌理与循环可持续理念为核心创作内核，锚定天然材质优先的设计准则，重构工装机能鞋款的环保表达。鞋身主体采用占比超 50% 的植物鞣制牛皮，依托植物萃取鞣料完成加工，全程规避有害化工制剂，可自然降解回归土壤；辅以有机棉麻织物、可再生软木饰片、回收橡胶改性辅料，全组件取材于自然再生体系，从源头降低时尚产业耗材损耗。 设计语言融合解构主义层次拼接工艺，通过几何错落裁片重组鞋面结构，摒弃传统整皮裁切带来的材料浪费，铆钉、调节束带等手工细节，充分挖掘植鞣材质柔韧可塑性，让粗犷工装质感与先锋机能线条共生。鞋底借鉴蜂窝仿生 3D 打印思路，打造镂空轻量化复合橡胶基底，在减轻鞋身负重的同时，强化材质透气与可降解属性。 整体配色取自山野泥土、草木苔藓原生色调，弱化人工染色痕迹。「壤」意为土地原生，「循」代表循环往复，整双鞋以天然可回收材料构建完整闭环，借复古与未来碰撞的造型，传递顺应自然、循环共生的生活态度，诠释不受制式束缚、根植大地的自我表达。 This work is titled TerraCycle, centered on the original texture of earth and the philosophy of circular sustainability, adhering to the design principle of prioritizing natural materials to reimagine eco-friendly expression for workwear functional footwear. The upper is crafted with over 50% vegetable-tanned cowhide, processed with plant-derived tanning agents free of harmful chemical additives, enabling natural biodegradation back into soil. Complemented by organic cotton-linen textiles, renewable cork inlays and modified recycled rubber accessories, all components are sourced from natural regenerative systems to cut industrial material waste at the source. Drawing on deconstructivist layered splicing techniques, geometric staggered panels restructure the upper and eliminate material waste from conventional full-leather cutting. Handcrafted details such as metal rivets and adjustable laces fully exploit the flexible malleability of vegetable-tanned leather, blending rugged workwear texture with avant-garde functional lines. The outsole adopts bionic honeycomb 3D printing logic to form a hollow lightweight composite rubber base, reducing footwear weight while boosting breathability and biodegradability. The color palette draws inspiration from wild soil, moss and native vegetation, minimizing artificial pigmentation. Terra symbolizes primal earth, and Cycle stands for circular regeneration. Constructed with fully recyclable materials to form a closed ecological loop, the silhouette fuses retro and futuristic aesthetics, conveying a lifestyle of harmony with nature and circular coexistence, as well as an unconfined self rooted in the land.

本作品名为《蛛栖・皮序》，以蜘蛛躯体骨骼形态为仿生设计内核，严格遵循赛事天然真皮使用规范，将渐变洋红与紫色天然头层牛皮作为鞋面核心主材，牛皮占比超整体面料 50%，全程规避珍稀毛皮，践行赛事 “真皮真自我” 的可持续创作理念。 鞋身采用波浪曲面牛皮分片拼接工艺，搭配雕刻实木打造蜘蛛腿仿生支撑中底，木材与牛皮复合包覆强化结构层次；鞋领与绑带选用可降解有机棉麻针织面料，兼顾亲肤透气与低碳属性；底层搭载带天然毛孔的再生橡胶大底，缓冲耐磨同时实现材料循环再生。仅在无天然材质替代的扣环尖端微量使用环保塑料点缀，最大化降低化工辅料占比。 设计借蜘蛛自然生命肌理解构鞋履结构，融合鞣制真皮温润质感与原生木材粗粝肌理，在生物仿生美学、天然真皮运用与生态可持续三者间建立平衡，探索真皮鞋履未来低碳设计新范式。 Titled Arachnid Habitat · Leather Code, this footwear design takes the skeletal morphology of spider bodies as its bionic core, fully complying with the competition’s specifications for genuine leather application. Gradient magenta and purple full-grain natural cowhide serves as the dominant upper material, accounting for over 50% of all fabrics. Exotic furs and rare leathers are entirely excluded to uphold the sustainable creation ethos of the “Real Leather. Stay Different.” competition. The upper is constructed via segmented splicing of curved wavy cowhide panels, paired with carved solid timber to form spider-leg bionic supportive midsoles, where composite cladding of timber and cowhide enriches structural depth. Collars and straps adopt degradable organic cotton-linen knit fabric, balancing skin-friendly breathability and low-carbon performance. The outsole is crafted from regenerated natural rubber with inherent pores, delivering cushioning and abrasion resistance while enabling material circularity. Eco-friendly plastic is only minimally applied at the tip of buckles, where no natural alternatives exist, drastically cutting the proportion of chemical auxiliary materials. Deconstructing shoe architecture through the natural textural language of spiders, the design merges the soft, tactile warmth of tanned genuine leather with the rugged grain of raw timber. It strikes a harmonious balance among bionic aesthetics, authentic leather utilization and ecological sustainability, pioneering a novel low-carbon paradigm for genuine leather footwear design.
