WINDOWSEN’s Genderless ‘Prosthetic Slides’ Are Uniquely Constructed
Kanesa David — June 10, 2022 — Art & Design
WINDOWSEN’s genderless shoes, dubbed the ‘Prosthetic Slide,’ are an extension of the brand’s unique style that blends elements of the material world and the surreal. The ‘Prosthetic Slide’ combines women's haute couture with men's sportswear for an elevated otherworldly slip-on.
WINDOWSEN uses a black and purple color scheme to cover the TPU silhouette on the shoe. An enormous prosthetic heel and midsole unit is equipped with talon-like claws emerging from the upper band like an alien's foot. The footbed has a polished texture that extends to the heel, where WINDOWSEN's trademark branding in 3D lettering rests. The outsole features more branding, as well as an anthropomorphic design that improves traction and comfort.
WINDOWSEN's Prosthetic Slide is available now through Machine-store A's and online for $855 USD.
