Nike Tiempo Project 2022
“Through trial and error, I created a leather cleat upper and equipped it to play with a Nylon carbon-fiber base plate and heel counter that is sandwiched in between the studs plate and upper. “
“I used two layers of stomach-cut cowhide top grain leather to be more elastic and coated in an acrylic spray coating, done to simulate Nike’s K-lite, synthetic Kangaroo skin.”

This project is a part of my FC Millrace collection. It was inspired by Italian Cobbler culture which influenced my process, material choice and construction method.
