People Footwear ™ Launches its Fall/Winter 2015 Line with Ultimate Comfort in Mind
Vancouver, Canada August 18, 2015 – People Footwear, a footwear brand producing the next generation of classic, casual footwear is excited to announce the launch of its 2015 Fall/ Winter (FW15) collection hitting stores worldwide this September. The brand launched globally in Spring/Summer 2015 in 12 countries including the USA, Canada, Japan, Korea, and the Philippines. Highlights of the season included an exclusive all-white Phillips and Stanley Knit model with Kith NYC. Expectations for the brand are high and People Footwear’s FW15 line is primed to exceed them.
Footwear designer and entrepreneur Damian Van Zyll De Jong, formerly of Native Shoes, will unveil the brand’s newest silhouette, The Cypress, featuring a cozy WarmCore™ upper and soft-touch footbed reminiscent of a sleeping bag for the foot. The combination of a pillowy quilted upper and elastic/toggled laces means you can slip these on with one eyed closed – perfect for those “way too early” morning dog walks.
“We work hard to create comfortable and stylish footwear and The Cypress is an ideal reflection of our efforts,” says De Jong.
Also new this Fall is the launch of “little People,” the brand’s expansion into a children’s footwear line featuring the same classic Phillips, Stanley and Senna silhouettes in “mini-me” sizes and colours. Constructed from their own performance molded foam known as SkyliteTM EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) and featuring 3-D printed paneling, these shoes are redefining the notion of comfort.
People Footwear’s product philosophy is "high-performance leisure," which means technical performance products ideal for leisurely pursuits. People Footwear’s DreamKnit™ collection is a prime example of this using digitally-knit uppers to create an ultra-breathable and super comfortable shoe. Using a high-tech digital knitting machine each pair takes one hour to digitally knit using multiple spools of thread to create a unique look and feel. “This is one of the first casual shoes of its kind and will help change the future of footwear production,” states De Jong.
