[Kiko Kostadinoc works in collaboration](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/levis-x-kiko-kostadinov) with Camper on producing a collection of formal footwear designs that are reworked to push new boundaries. The Camper will be dropping the selection as a part of its Fall/Winter 2019 selection, highlighting three menswear styles across two different Camper structures -- the Teix and the Deia.

The Teix is a motorcycle style boot silhouette and it brings formal footwear to an angle that explores industrial looks and edgy styles. The Deia is softer in structure, lined with soft premium Italian leather materials and boasts a moccasin style to bring a sense of retro aesthetics as well. Additional details include the [GORE](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/snow-peak-x-merrell-speedarc-matis-goretex-sp)-[TEX](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/reigning-champ-goretex) lining on the Teix, delivering waterproof sensibilities on top of its multiple layered leather uppers. The Deia is complete with a rounded toe for an overall softer look.

## Key Themes

### What Makes This Trend Stand Out

- **Reworked Formal Footwear:** Revamping traditional formal footwear designs with new styles and materials to cater to a wider audience beyond traditional business settings.
- **Industrial/edgy Looks in Formal Footwear:** Introducing styles that blend the aesthetics of formal and industrial looks, such as motorcycle style boot silhouette with formal elements, to offer consumers more versatile options in their fashion choices.
- **Premium Materials for Footwear:** Exploring softer, premium materials, such as soft Italian leather, to elevate the aesthetic value and comfort of formal footwear designs.

### Sectors Adopting This

- **Footwear Manufacturing:** Opportunities for footwear companies to partner with designers experienced in creating unique and diverse styles and materials for formal shoes.
- **Menswear Fashion:** Catering to a wider audience beyond traditional business settings and exploring new style combinations for unique and edgy fashion choices in men's formal wear.
- **Luxury Fashion:** Bringing together premium materials, unique designs and limited edition collections to deliver upscale fashion options that cater to consumers who value comfortable, stylish and distinctive fashion.
