Footwear design often highlights male designers, but where are the women? This sneaker features four unique 3D hands with accessories, symbolizing women's crucial role in design. Standing 5.5 inches tall with a 3.5-inch low back, it’s designed using 3D Gravity Sketch for potential 3D printing. Aiming to empower women with strength and allure, it also reflects the support women offer each other in the industry. Named “Fräulein” (German for “woman”), it honors my immigrant mother and her unwavering support.
