SixLee x Aqua Two Sneaker Capsule Collection
by Adriano Batista
Hong Kong-based, menswear designer Six Lee collaborates for the first time with sneaker company AQUA TWO to create a stunning collection of sneakers. The Antwerp-trained designer is no stranger to designing accessories, having created a unisex jewelry collection previously with Belgium jewelry brand Diamanti Per Tutti. This collaboration encompasses 20 covetable shoe models in a variety of colors and styles. The campaign for this collaboration, was shot in both film and photography with leading Korean creative talents Gi Seok Cho and Seung Lee.
The starting point for the sneaker collaboration occurred when Lee stumbled across the work of Melbourne painter Esther Stewart. Six Lee notes: “Stewart’s paintings combine geometric shapes with dreamy color palettes, balancing classic and futuristic undertones. It was this paradoxical contrast in approach that inspired me to create something similar in this collaboration. This is why you see traditional elements from Oxford shoes and loafers transformed and distilled into a modern and sporty context.”
Aqua Two also remarks about the collaboration: “Aqua Two has always taken pride in creating outdoor walking shoes that provide comfort, minimal environmental impact and great design. That said, we noticed that there was still a demand for both very functional and very fashionable shoes that was not being addressed. We are happy with this collaboration, and believe this great product will fill a much needed gap in the market.”
The collection features a combination of design details, including marble print soles, leather with a holographic sheen, reptilian textures, classic tassels and high-tech mesh. Pastel colors are also intermixed with monochrome hues. This wide and non- discriminatory approach to the design creates an aesthetic that integrates the familiar with the unfamiliar. In this sense, the shoes bring a new meaning to marrying function and form resulting in a collection that is very much fresh and unique.
