Nendo: Envelope

Nendo designed for the Italian footwear and bag brand Tod’s Envelope, a men’s boat shoes that combines leather and suede, visually connected with side detail.

For the men’s shoe designed for Tod’s, Nendo chose to combine two materials for the shoe’s upper – a soft leather for the vamp, and suede for the quarter and backstay – and visually connect the two materials with side detail like an envelope’s string tie.

A rubber sole like those traditionally used for deck shoes emphasises the Tod’s design lineage, and carefully hidden, near-invisible stitching brings out the softness of the shoes while inside, a highly breathable mesh inner gives lightness and a sense of relaxation.
