Day 2:
Have you ever had a great idea? Just something in the back of your head that you thought was really cool or interesting? Have you ever had the opportunity to tell a person your idea that could make that it into a reality?
Today, I had the awesome experience of speaking with the legendary Suzzette Henry the material designer on several Air Jordan models. We discussed the possible material options of an Undefeated G shock collaboration.
One thing that I’ve learned from speaking to people that can make dreams come to reality is that you need to make sure your ideas are clear, easy to understand and organized. This is because a person on a high level of design won’t tolerate you being unorganized or poorly wording your idea.
Fortunately, I’ve been practicing my pitch all night: A G Shock x Undefeated collaboration inspired by the two of the baddest LA teams of all time. The gritty LA Raiders of the 90s and the current Stanley Cup Champion LA Kings.
Designing a shoe specifically designed for agility training will assist in a hockey player’s ability to skate faster, with more control, as well as a football player’s ability to quickly run route patterns and evade defenders.
D’wayne said the idea was really strong and allowed me to move forward! So, over the next few days get ready to start seeing some interesting sketches of what a new Undefeated cross trainers could look like!
