It also tried to change the look of boots by adding depth in layers as well as different techniques

This page shows the renewable materials used in & around the shoe all of which use natural materials to the same high standards as used in current footwear
The red layer tries use the inspiration of the human form by acting as the capillary system found under the skin very similar to the footwear above. (The new Puma McQueen series also uses the human make-up as inspiration).
Using the veins in an abstract way they help add energy & organic diversity flowing around the boot
