ZELLERFELD PLATFORM

The footwear half of the same argument

Zellerfeld does for shoes what Visages does for frames: prints them whole. No glue, no stitching, no assembly line, no factory minimum, one continuous printed body, made to order, and returnable if the fit is wrong.

For a designer this removes the single biggest constraint in footwear. A normal shoe is a compromise between what you want and what a last, a mould and a supply chain will permit. Printed, the geometry is the only limit, which is why the studio's shoes look like objects rather than like shoes with ideas applied to them.

Most of the Footwear section runs through this platform, Casul, Sagra, Sboot, UOMD, Vize and the rest, and the studio keeps a creator page there where the work can actually be bought.
