Lindybop was a British remade retro brand. We worked on their first footwear line, introducing them to a trading company, we worked with their design team and designed and teched their entire entire range. We also introduced them to an expert in accessories who helped steer them in the right direction on accessories, designing and developing everything from Jewellery to belts.

Many of my clients request hand renders only, in the world of fast and street fashion, especially for European production, cad is just not needed as sampling is quick!

Megadrive range with polycarbonate sole - this was developed for me by Splendourplast in Italy and was technically complex as it was a new construction which required a lot of testing and prototypes. Fortunately it was a great success!
