Sculptural, unconventional and distinctly Trippen, Hinge transforms the classic lace-up shoe through an expressive system of leather cords and tubular details. Inspired by the movement of mechanical hinges, the construction creates a bold framework around the upper and gives the shoe its architectural character.
A thick leather cord travels around the vamp through a series of tubular loops, continues beneath the shoe and is tied over the instep. This continuous element visually connects the upper and sole while providing a flexible, adjustable fit. Crafted from textured black leather, the broad surfaces and softly rounded toe balance the graphic construction with a clean, understated silhouette.
Hinge combines experimental detailing with everyday versatility. Its monochromatic finish pairs naturally with wide-leg trousers, relaxed tailoring and workwear-inspired pieces, offering a confident alternative to the conventional lace-up shoe.
