REPLAY, historical brand in the denim and casual wear scene, and Desall invite all creative people of the world to design a new 24-hours shoe model for men and women for a non-stop REPLAY experience, night and day.

What we are looking for

This brief is also available in Italian ( Download ).

Make the REPLAY philosophy your own, rooted in the denim and casual world, and propose two new shoe models, one for men and one for women, suitable for every moment of the day and the night, a 24 hours shoe that fits every occasion, from a casual encounter to a more fancy event, a versatile shoe thought for metropolitan crowd that never sleeps.


Guidelines

For the correct realisation of your proposals, keep into consideration the following guidelines:

Product typology: REPLAY is looking for two shoe models, one for men and one for women. These might belong to the same collection or be stylistically independent. In this regard, for the purpose of this contest every model shall be submitted separately and include in the title whether it is for him or for her.
It shall be an innovative and versatile product, which can adapt to several occasions, while complying with the style indications set out below.

Style: your models shall reflect the REPLAY DNA, faithful to the heritage style that reinterprets icons of the past in an innovative and contemporary way. Your models shall also be suitable for a non-stop use, wearable 24/7, devoted to the metropolitan world that never stops, with a casual and – when necessary – dressy style, just perfect for every situation.

Shapes: no indications are given with regards to the shapes your models shall have, accordingly you can also experiment with new formal approaches in order to better address the style and fit requirements here mentioned.

Materials: your models shall employ the following materials: leather, fabric, denim, nylon, mesh, paint, suede, tech materials, fake fur, metallic materials. The employment of natural fur is not allowed. You can explore innovative or non-conventional employments of the available materials.

Values: while designing your projects, do not lose sight of the philosophy that made REPLAY an unmistakable and landmark brand in the denim and casual wear international scene.
Highlight the authenticity values that REPLAY has always interpreted in an innovative and contemporary way, building over time a strong emotional bond with the customer. A highest instance of how these values have been translated by the brand is visible in the attention to detail reserved for their own stores, in particular in the multi-experience The Stage store in Milan (see Material files), in Gae Aulenti square.

Target: the target group of your shoes is made up of men and women aged between 25 and 44 years, which live deep inside the metropolitan atmosphere and are always looking for functional products that might follow them in every occasion, without giving up quality and style, two important synonymous of REPLAY.

Target price: the market positioning for the models you suggest will fall in the following price range: 90 – 150 €.
