Emma Low

The Emma Low is built on a popular Oboz tooling package and is the result of a fast-track design sprint to offer a women’s low in the “All-Terrain” category. For this project, my role included upper, materials and color design.

Panelling and a hairy suede and textile material mix allow for a playful color block and unique silhouette in the Oboz line. The Emma sold in well and saw enough success in it’s first season that a mid version was added for a fall release. The style allowed Oboz to gauge interest from retailers for women’s casual footwear and experiment with materials and color.
