In the upcoming Fall 2 issue of the Eurosport catalog, there will be a full page feature on hummel boots. As a part of this ad, some of my sketches and renderings will be included.

Not exactly footwear related, but interesting! hummel has been asked to take part in The Dunny Show CPH, an exhibition of customized Dunny toys by some of the best designers and creative people here in Denmark. The event follows hot on the heels of the previous Kid Robot Dunny Shows in NYC, SF and elsewhere.

I have been involved working up concepts for the proeject to be fabricated. Check out the ideas. More concept sketches after the Read More link below.

Of course, if you are in CPH from August 2, be sure to check out the final exhibit at Asbæk Gallery.

Pictures of the final Dunny will be posted soon (when its done!)

New for 2007, the hummel 4.2 Concept FGC/SG features an exciting new material > Pittards WR100X Analine Goat Skin.

The military use this leather for the very thin, but high performance gloves worn by the Special Forces who jump out of helicopters and slide down ropes to action. In these high wear circumstances, gloves are required that will give good water and sweat resistance, but also excellent touch and softness feeling like a second skin. It is also very important that these special gloves prevent rope burn and wear.

In our new football boots, these combination of unique features (softness, touch, weather and sweat resistance and high abrasion resistance (20% more than K-leather), make it the perfect material for premium control and performance.This uniquely finished natural aniline offers up to 5 times higher breathability than standard Kangaroo Leather with no sacrifice in water or sweat resistance.

In addition, as it is a very lightweight leather with a unique fibre structure, the resulting boot is 22% lighter than the copa and comparable classic leather boots.

Unlike reguar-finish leathers, this Analine leather needs no "break-in" period. It is super soft fresh from the box, and will only improve and mold to your feet with wear. As well, because of the Analine finish, the surface of the leather has a more dull, natural similar to some baseball batting gloves or driving gloves.





The 4.2 Concept features a classic round FGC outsole, or soft ground SG outsole, and a great mix of classic style with modern technical advantages included a glass reinforced heel counter, and asymmetrical design.
