This sandal is part of a student collaboration with Salomon, reflecting the brand’s core philosophy—“To exist is the ultimate challenge.” This sandal explores human adaptation in a flooded future, where rising seas and radiation drive genetic fusion with marine life. The outsole mimics a shark pup’s curled skeletal form, with bone-like structures supporting the heel. Skin-toned uppers with blue stitching evoke new, mutated tissue. Elastic around the topline ensures inclusivity, while a Velcro-secured rigid shell provides stability for dynamic movement in unpredictable terrain.
