Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Visvim Hockney Ostrich-Folk Shoes Come in Four Wicked Colorways

— April 2, 2011 — Fashion
The Visvim Hockney Ostrich-Folk shoes are wicked. They were dropped as part of the opening of the new Visvim F.I.L. Hong Kong flagship store. The boat shoe comes in four sweet colorways that are classic and easy to match. The Visvim Hockney Ostrich-Folk comes in black, dark brown, white and multicolor.

Like the name suggests, The Visvim Hockney Ostrich-Folk has uppers that are completely covered in ostrich leather, which has a distinct texture that really makes these pairs of footwear truly worth every penny.

When it comes to boat shoes, these are definitely pairs that will blow the others out of the water. Landlubbers can walk it out in sailor style this spring and summer season with these kicks.
Trend Themes
1. Ostrich Leather Footwear - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop new, eco-friendly materials that mimic the unique texture of ostrich leather for footwear.
2. Colorful Classic Boat Shoes - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce customizable, digitally printed boat shoes that allow customers to choose from a variety of colors and patterns.
3. Luxury Flagship Store Openings - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create virtual reality platforms that simulate the in-store luxury shopping experience, allowing customers to explore flagship stores from anywhere.
Industry Implications
1. Fashion and Footwear - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Implement 3D-printing technology to create customizable footwear designs based on customer preferences.
2. Material Science - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop sustainable alternatives to exotic leather materials, such as using biofabrication techniques to grow cruelty-free leather in labs.
3. Retail and Virtual Reality - Disruptive innovation opportunity: Build virtual reality platforms that allow customers to virtually browse and shop in luxury flagship stores, providing an immersive and convenient shopping experience.
