The Nigerian-owned footwear brand NBDA just released a new offering called the NBDA technical slides V101 Silhouette. Established in 2015, NBDA started designing footwear with the major objective of connecting the human form to the sole. The brand makes use of multidimensional and architectural methods in its design approach with a rigorous production and manufacturing process to bring these 3-D creations to life. What’s particularly interesting about these slides and how NBDA goes about making their product is the scrutinizing design and production process. The brand reportedly sends a piece through an extensive 13-stage process for it to eventually be hand-made by a team of professionals in nine different factories worldwide.Impressive right?
