This shoe was designed by Japan-based Nike Harajuku, and features an intriguing mix of colors and materials. The first thing that sticks out about the Bespoke from Nike Harajuku has to be the tiger fur. This loud material is offset by the brown croc filling that covers the side panel and the toebox. The brown really contrasts against the tiger fur, which is what helps set this shoe apart from the hundreds of other tiger fur shoes out there. Time to put this shoe on the endangered species list. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 3.7/10 - Popularity: 58% | Activity: 44% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Fashion](https://www.trendhunter.com/fashion) > [Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/shoes) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Animal-inspired Footwear:** Opportunity for creating unique and eye-catching footwear designs that incorporate animal fur and textures. - **Custom Shoe Design:** Potential for personalized and bespoke shoe designs that cater to individual preferences and style. - **Sustainable Fashion:** Opportunity to explore alternative materials and production methods to reduce the impact of fashion on animal populations. ### Where This Applies - **Footwear:** Disruptive innovation opportunity for companies to introduce unconventional materials and designs in the footwear industry. - **Fashion and Apparel:** Potential for fashion brands to capitalize on the demand for unique and sustainable fashion pieces featuring animal-inspired designs. - **Luxury Goods:** Opportunity to create high-end, limited-edition footwear designs that appeal to affluent individuals seeking exclusive and unconventional products. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Premium Craftsmanship Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mexico-66-deluxe.md) - [Fuzzy Blue Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dunk-low-abominable-snowman.md) - [Animal-Inspired Patterned Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snakeskin-colorway-2.md) - [Dramatic Textural Joint Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avanti-pony-hair.md) - [Stealthy Textural Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-pony-hair.md) - [Sleek Textural Sneaker Colorways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-ostrich.md) - [Dynamic Aqua-Tonal Joint Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gelkayano-20.md) - [Textural Stealthy Lifestyle Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/black-cat-colorway.md) - [Villain-Centric Collaboration Sneakers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tekken-8.md)
