The AW11 Capriole shoe. The heel was made of several layers of glass/carbonfiber to make the extreme shape possible.

The SS12 Fang shoe. The whole outsole was CNCed in ABS, fitted to the bootie, cast in a silicone vacuum mold. A very complex but rewarding project.

The AW12 Thorn shoe. The upper for this shoe is a 1-piece silicone part, made possible with a silicone vacuum mold. The platform, ABS heel and midsole are glued in after, making for a very production efficient shoe.

Iris van Herpen x United Nude
I have been very involved with the shoes United Nude makes for Iris van Herpen's fashion shows. Responsibilities include translating Iris's sketches to a feasible design, creating CAD models and partly overseeing the small production run. Turnaround is usually about 3 months.

Super cool idea here. I love the AW12 Thorn shoe the most.
Beautiful and sexy! Will they ever be produced? In the future I will want one for a female to wear for a photoshoot for one of my automotive wheel designs!
oh my GOSH!! THIS IS INSANE!! love your work!
Thanks guys!
Cool work. They actually make me nervous that the wearer will fall, but the fact this design spurs my reaction is good.
