I read about your new nanofiber lattice thingy—sounds slick, but if you want a shoe that sings, you need to think about the silhouette first, not just the tech. How do you see the future of foot‑wear design meeting true form?

Sounds fancy, but if the lattice just mimics the foot you lose the story that only a true silhouette tells. A living mold is nice, but you’ll still need that guiding hand of the designer—otherwise you’re just a piece of smart rubber, not a narrative. Think about the arc of the heel, the tension line of the toe box, those subtle curves that make a shoe speak before the foot even touches it. And for heaven’s sake, no Velcro in the mix. Keep the elegance, not the convenience.
