SUICOKE is widely recognized for its craft in functional outdoor footwear and iconic works with Italian label [Vibram](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-available-1) for a custom footbed. SUICOKE and Descente ALLTERRAIN now collectively designed a minimalist sandal collaboration with the choices of two colorways -- either white or black. The minimal footwear piece goes by the name of the 'DSV 1 Sandal.' The functional and simplistic DSV 1 Sandals are unique due to their chunky platform foundation, which also rests on top of the iconic customized Vibram footbed for ultimate comfort when worn. The collaborative sandals will be available for purchase online at select retailers including END clothing. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 78% | Activity: 95% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: 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 - **Chunky Platform Footwear:** Opportunity for brands to create unique and functional sandals with chunky platform foundations for added comfort and style. - **Collaborative Footwear:** Opportunity for brands to collaborate and create minimalist sandals that appeal to multiple target markets. - **Functional Outdoor Footwear:** Opportunity for brands to focus on creating functional and durable outdoor sandals that prioritize comfort and performance. ### Where This Applies - **Footwear:** Opportunity for footwear brands to explore new designs and materials to create innovative and stylish sandals. - **Collaboration:** Opportunity for brands in various industries to collaborate and create unique products that cater to different consumer needs. - **Fashion Retail:** Opportunity for fashion retailers to carry exclusive and limited edition footwear collaborations to attract new customers and boost sales. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Dynamic Technical Seasonal Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suicoke-4.md) - [Collaborative Futuristic Footwear Series](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/space-available-1.md) - [Collaborative Pocketed Reflective Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reflective-sandal.md) - [Dynamic Chunky Branded Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adilette-22-xlg.md) - [Functional Relaxed Winter Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suicoke-fw24-footwear-collection.md) - [Patterned Puffy Artisanal Shoes](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/suicoke-and-story-mfg.md) - [Unique Platform-Style Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/platformstyle-sandals.md) - [Dynamic Neutral-Toned Footwear](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sanuk-1.md) - [Cozy Collaborative Faux-Fur Sandals](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/belt-sandal.md)
