UNDOXXED

Five sneakers built to be worn through a phone camera.

Three-quarter studio render of a chunky low sneaker with a whale-shark spot pattern on the upper and a cream sculpted midsole.
Five sneakers that were never cut or stitched. A runner covered in whale-shark spots that fade from tail to toe. A bone-white slip-on banded like a shell. A knit sock caged in concrete tetrapods. An all-black moulded slip-on. A trainer skinned in dollar-bill engraving. Each shoe was built twice. Once at full detail for the renders, then again stripped down to fit inside a Snapchat lens — few enough polygons and light enough textures that a phone can hold the shoe on a moving foot in real time. The shapes had to survive that diet. Built in 2023 as one set of five lenses. Footwear made for the camera rather than the factory.
