Android Homme Collaboration with Coogi Australia

Inspired by the nostalgia of the iconic Coogi sweater. I had the pleasure of working on this project in the Fall of 2015 which would debut in Spring 2016. This project fuses the nostalgia of the Coogi sweater worn by the Christopher Wallace (also know as Biggie) and the high-end luxury brand Android Homme which crafts all their product in Italy. This project was specifically limited to 20 pairs per country. 

My Role: Footwear design and CMF internship at Android Homme.

Creative Direction: Javier Laval & Steve Patino

Materials: Knitted Cotton, Calfskin Lining and Rubber Italian Margom Outsole

Manufactured in Italy

The Silhouettes: The idea was to dissect the two new silhouettes which were the Alpha Low and Alpha Hi which were already existing silhouettes when I joined Android homme. We wanted to maximize the "real-estate" in order to really showcase the beauty of the Coogi sweater.
