feather step classic
SHAMMY Co., Ltd. / SASI Co., Ltd.
We were in charge of product design for the flagship sneaker [feather step classic] for SHAMMY Co., Ltd.(Yamato Koriyama City, Nara Prefecture), a company that designs and manufactures footwear including sneakers and leather shoes.

The company’s feather step brand, developed as footwear for daily walking, has been supported by many people since its launch due to its lightness and softness. The concept of the flagship sneaker, which inherits the performance qualities of “feather step,” is “footwear that can be used comfortably for both formal and casual wear. To realize this concept, we aimed to create a design with fashion (aesthetics) on the outside, which people can see, and function on the inside, which are not seen.

The upper and sole use lines, stitches, and details that have been studied in appropriate modules to create a minimalist design befitting the name “classic” that thoroughly eliminates waste. We focused on details such as the integration of stitching inside the heel detail called “loop,” and the lines that flow from the laces.


スニーカー、革靴をはじめとするフットウェアを企画製造しているシャミー株式会社(奈良県大和郡山市)のフラッグシップスニーカー[feather step classic]のプロダクトデザインを担当しました。

日々歩くためのフットウェアとして開発された同社のブランド[feather step]は、その軽さと柔らかさから発売以降多くの方に支持されています。そのfeather stepの性能の良さをそのまま継承したフラッグシップスニーカーのコンセプトは、「フォーマルでもカジュアルでも心地よく使えるフットウェア。そのコンセプトを実現するために、人から見られる外側はファッション(美観)、見えづらい内側にファンクション(機能)を持ったデザインを目指しました。

アッパー、ソールには適切なモジュールで検討されたライン、ステッチ、ディテールを用い、徹底的に無駄を排除したclassicの名にふさわしいミニマルなデザインにしました。縫製をループと呼ばれるかかとのディテールの内側に集約したり、シューレースから流れるようなラインを持っていたり、徹底的に細部にこだわりました。
