The veteran designer, who has worked with big names like Versace and Crocs, has been teasing fans with glimpses of his upcoming shoe. While no release details have been announced yet, it’s expected to make its debut later this year.
15 Years of Experience Culminate in New Shoe and Book Release
Bembury’s journey in the footwear industry has been nothing short of impressive. With 15 years of experience under his belt, he has not only created countless unique designs but also has a book, Salehe Bembury: I Make Shoes, set to release in October. This retrospective will not only showcase his collaborations but also mark the launch of his own brand.
Teasers Show Off Bold Colorways and Unique Design Elements
The teasers of Bembury’s new shoe have been causing a stir among sneakerheads. The various colorways, from bold blue and orange to all-gray with pink accents, feature a layered upper and textured sole unit. The shoes also bear the Spunge brand, which has been a platform for Bembury’s collaborations in the past. A Spunge-branded stitched tag and six-point logo can be seen on the lateral side of the shoe.
Squish Technology and Possible Collaborative Launch
One of the defining features of the shoe is its squish technology, which provides cushioning with each step. While no release details have been shared, one pair features Rizzoli branding, hinting at a possible collaboration with the publishing of Bembury’s book. Keep an eye out for updates on the shoe’s features and release date, as it’s expected to make its debut later this year.
