Skechers GO GOLF - Birdie
CMF Designer - 2016
“The Birdie” was Skechers’ first womens’ golf shoe that would be worn on the LPGA tour, and was in need of a CMF update. I chose materials, patterns, and colors that could stand out in the LPGA tour for Skechers’ sponsored golfers. The color story had a dark and light option with floral detail in the quarter window.
Style Boards
I created some style boards to get see what direction I wanted to go in. After speaking with some of the LPGA Skechers sponsored golfers, I decided to head in a floral direction.
The Shoe
The Birdie was revamped with a waterproof mesh upper and matte hotmelt finishes, suitable for the golf tour. In the quarter window, I gave it a floral pop to add some fun to the shoe. I added an athletic lace and a semi-translucent turf outsole and the Birdie was ready for some golf.
