concept & development
The 60/30/10 split is a concept allocation across three colourways. Nubuck and mesh are proposed materials; finish and construction still need confirmation. Pantone TCX references are proposals for physical sample approval, rather than approved colour matches.
Next steps include lab dips on finished leather and mesh, separate toe, midsole and outsole sample approvals under D65 lighting, and confirmation of the Seasonal outsole’s cost and minimums.
Independent concept. Colour direction and presentation by Tevin Keobouala. Not affiliated with or endorsed by Arc’teryx.
