An Icon Reimagined.
The latest in collaborative releases, global lifestyle brand UGG and Chinese designer Fen Chen Wang recently debuted their reimagined unisex take on the classic UGG boot for your perusal.
Taking the instantly recognisable silhouette and deconstructing it to create a contemporary new style, the updated take on an icon sees the design taken apart to form a multi-season, modular number for your consideration. Arriving in the classic neutral colour the brand’s boot is known for, the unisex drop comprises two modular elements – a buckle-adjusted sandal and cosy sheepskin boot liner – which can be worn separately or together. Speaking on the release, Fen Chen Wang commented;
“Even though I had worked on footwear before, this is a new and radically different collaboration which I loved working on, the clash of cultures, background and origins of both brands is exactly what makes this partnership interesting and meaningful. We’re excited to see the combination of how our signature functionality and deconstructed design language can play with such an iconic footwear as UGG in a fresh new way.”
