This is an exercise, from an idea by the client, to customise sneakers so that young people can change their appearance by inserting cards around the sneakers exterior.

My work covered the steps from concept to manufacture:

- Concept ideas

- CAD design development

- Prototypes manufacture and testing

- Design for manufacture

Sneakers customisation

The sneakers have transparent pockets in which cards can be inserted and removed	Inserts can be placed on both sides and the front. At the rear, the pockets provide easy access place the inserts by opening them. They have fasteners to close them at the back
The sneakers without inserts look like ordinary white sneakers	The inserts can be coloured cards, images, favourite pop artists, or even promotional material given to the wearer
Placing an insert	Test on prototypes to prevent the pockets from getting damage where the sneakers bends when walking
Part of the tech pack to manufacture the sneakers	Market research of sneakers
