Repurposed Denim Sneakers

The Remade Crafts a Version of a Levis x Air Jordan 1 Sneaker

— April 19, 2018 — Fashion
The Remade is a custom label that turns concepts into reality, and its latest project is a blend of Levis denim and the iconic Air Jordan 1 sneaker silhouette. The label infuses the recognizable footwear piece with re-purposed denim materials all throughout the entire upper. The Remade was originally inspired by the Jordan IV Levis piece that Jordan Brand released earlier this year. The vision was to create its own version, but from its own unique approach -- tearing up Levis signature trucker jacket.

The sneakers are completely reworked with the iconic trucker jacket, down to the front pocket details which are seen as the sneaker's tongue. There are also distressed details all throughout the shoe, and the signature Levis branding tag sees the heel of the left shoe. On the interior, premium Italian lambskin is used as the lining.
Trend Themes
1. Customized Fashion - Businesses in the fashion industry should consider customizing their products to stay ahead of the trend and attract customers who value exclusive items.
2. Sustainable Fashion - Opportunities exist for companies to incorporate upcycled materials in their products and appeal to environmentally conscious consumers who want to reduce waste.
3. Collaborative Design - There is a trend towards collaborating with partners, such as The Remade did with Levis and Jordan, to combine unique elements from different industries and create a new product with a story behind it.
Industry Implications
1. Footwear - Footwear businesses should explore incorporating unique sustainable materials into their products like denim and collaborating with other industries to create unique designs based on popular silhouettes.
2. Fashion - Companies in the fashion industry should look beyond traditional materials and designs and incorporate upcycled materials into their products. Collaborating with other businesses can also provide opportunities for creating new and unique products.
3. Sustainability - Businesses involved in sustainability should consider ways they can partner with other industries to upcycle materials and create unique products that have a story behind them.
