Footwear Design Graphic Design
I was responsible for creating the next version of the PRO Air, the brand's best design. We aimed for a lightweight product that still provided comfort and support. We improved the design and materials by using HuaFeng Haptic print and eventually had to restart the design process to focus on consumer needs.
