Offering the Eiffel Tower of footwear, the Strvct Line is comprised of customized shoes that have been 3D-printed through Shapeways. Joining the N12 Bikini created by Continuum, the Strvct Line will change the way people look at shoes forever. Delicate and sculptural, the resulting designs are more works of art than wearable items of clothing. Granted, people are looking for unique ways to express their individuality.
Available in different colors, heel heights and styles, the shoes in the Strvct Line are then given a patent leather inset and textured rubber bottom to ensure the safety of the wearer. While the web-like pattern appears to be the most popular, the Strvct Line boasts other designs that haven't been explored as much since they push the limits of what is recognizable as a shoe.
