Gucci Flashtrek Boots

In 2008, Alberto Toledo from Milan, who loves his design, created a brand, Flashtrek, which is about the fast lifestyle of the Italian modernists. Today, the brand’s official website offers more information about Italian modernism including sketches of his shoes, and these boots are to be found in its range of designs.

Flashtrek is a design based footwear with a quality concept which ranges from practical to stylistic. Its architecture combines the simplicity of a living room to the stately Art Deco style.

Its design philosophy is based on the following attributes: a radical, non-septic folding of single layers; timeless and natural colors which complement and energize the minimalism of its approach. A performance based on the experience of each element: the shoes complement the look of the wearer as the very essence of a wear that will refresh every situation and experience.

The style at first refers to the life associated with fashion as a natural manifestation which revolves around minimalism, ingenuity, grace and the innate and spontaneous orderliness which is found in the human and natural world.

The product references fashion as a powerful contemporary system and its human realization in the idea that personal expression is a series of experiences which lead to a beautiful progression in the quest for the life well lived.

"In a sense of being against modernity and the idea that everything is produced in a laboratory, these leather shoes are made to put on and on while wearing them.

On the heels of the use of leather, the wearer of the shoes (and the occasion) is expected to have a certain presence, elegance, grace and technique.

While that might sound like a uniform which relates to an identity, this does not tell the story of the shoes.

In the simple conception of a basic idea which is the signature of the product, we find both "an aspect which refuses the simplicity of a classic, austere look" and "an aspect which can be called a vision which takes care of the complexity of being, to finding the unity of the way in which people carry themselves".
