VIZE

3D-printed slip-on · Zellerfeld

VIZE in stone grey seen from the side, the ridge lines running the full length of the upper
The white VIZE pair standing on a white floor in direct sunlight, one shoe close to the camera, the perforated upper and lugged sole both catching hard light
White shoe, white floor, and only its own shadow.
The pair set down on a bright white surface with a hard diagonal band of shadow cutting across the frame behind them
The shadow does the framing.
Looking straight down at both feet wearing VIZE with wide white trousers, the shoes reading almost as part of the floor
Worn with white, on white.
A closer view down at both shoes on the feet, the perforated mesh of the upper clearly visible as a grid
Up close the upper is all grid.
Mid-step, one shoe lifted off the ground, the thick lugged sole tilted toward the camera
Mid-step, and the whole sole shows.
Walking across bright ground with a long shadow of the leg and shoe thrown out behind
Walking, with the shadow running ahead.
A leg raised toward the camera in white trousers, the shoe filling the top of the frame in strong sunlight
Held up to the sun.
A hand tipping the shoe over on a bright white surface to show the deep lugged outsole
Turned over, to show what it stands on.

VIZE is a closed-toe slip-on drawn in one gesture, wave-like ridge lines flow across a perforated upper, ending in a deep-lugged sole that reads almost mechanical. One piece, one material, no seam anywhere on it.

The shoe held up sole-outward against a bright window at dusk, the lug pattern reading as a silhouette
The sole against the last of the light.
The shoe held up with the perforated upper facing the window, the light coming straight through the mesh
The light goes right through the upper.
The shoe held in profile against a window, the ridge lines of the upper reading as one continuous curve
In profile it is a single line.
The shoe held above a white surface so it casts a sharp shadow of itself beside it
Two of them, one made of shadow.

Manufactured and launched on the Zellerfeld platform, printed in TPU as a single object: no stitching, no assembly, the silhouette arriving exactly as designed.

It was photographed in direct sun, white shoe on white ground in white trousers, so the only dark thing in the frame is its own shadow. The mesh reads as a texture at that distance and as a grid up close. Held up against a window at the end of the day, the light comes straight through the upper.

The range is five colourways, stone, black, oat, lilac and yellow, each drawn from four sides: angle, lateral, straight down into the opening, and the lugged sole with the signature moulded into the tread.
