INTRODUCING OUR NEWEST ICON – TRIGENIC FLEX
Trigenic Flex is the latest design innovation from Clarks Originals: the culmination of over 190 years expertise in the craft of shoemaking. With a tradition of introducing innovative footwear to the market place, the brands unconventional, and sometimes radical approach has resulted in the proliferation of globally recognised icons such as The Desert Boot and Wallabee. In continuation of this ‘free-thinking’ design philosophy, Clarks fuses a shoemaker’s craft/traditions with advanced technology/innovation to deliver the Trigenic Flex; an icon in the making. The Trigenic Flex is a beautifully crafted and truly original every day shoe that is minimal, deconstructed and fresh.The Trigenic Flex takes inspiration from an original 1883 Clarks Hygiene design; stylish shoes that were shaped to the natural contours of the foot, a great contrast to the seriously uncomfortable and deforming fashions of the time. Prad Indrakumar, Senior Designer, Clarks Originals states;
“We started by looking at the Clarks ‘Hygienic’ collection of 1883. This was a collection that allowed space for the toes of your foot to move as you walked - revolutionary for its time. We looked at how we could bring this into a modern context.”
Advanced knowledge of biomechanics, materials and contemporary construction methods have been brought together to create a design-led shoe that flexes in sync with the natural sequence of motion. An anatomical last shape has been slimmed down and combined with a 3-part decoupled sole unit, to support each stage of impact, deconstructed uppers crafted from premium leather panels, cut, angled and interlocked for optimum comfort
Super-modern styling, a classic moccasin construction, and a pioneering attitude defines this modern take on the Clarks heritage. Trigenic Flex is a game-changing new style that brings cutting edge shoe engineering, traditional craftsmanship and modern design together to create a totally unique shoe both substance and style.
