HYPEX is a creek shoe design that seamlessly blends outdoor functionality with hypebeast style. What sets HYPEX apart is its innovative incorporation of safety belt-inspired elements for secure foot lockdown, ensuring maximum stability even in challenging terrains. If the user want to loose the shoe, pull the metal pieces outward, with less elastic bands overlay, the flexibility goes higher; if the user want to tight the shoe, push the metal pieces inward, with more elastic bands overlay, the flexibility goes lower. Additionally, the visual language of gorpcore style enhances comfort and support, setting a new standard for urban river tracing enthusiasts. Integrate with speed dry materials, ergonomics, and outdoor footwear trends underpinned the foundation of this project, ensuring HYPEX offers unparalleled performance and aesthetics.
