concept
Manga robots are a terribly popular animation genre in Japan. Focusing on a specific detail of their design: the shapes of their legs. Robots are often huge and need stability to function properly which is why their feet are usually so much larger than the rest of the leg. This footwear collection gives the feeling of great stability to the wearer, who can experience the thrill of being a robot fighting against the enemy, both strong and beautiful.
