concept

David's shoes were inspired by shapes taken from modernist architecture, interiors and sculpture, which dictated the rules for the insertion of the shoes' fastenings. His footwear collection had a very futuristic look while maintaining the feel of traditional classic men's shoes. Ultimately, his idea was to develop a collection of progressive men's footwear.
