ACRONYM and ALIVEFORM Launch THE BLADE in New "SILVER FANG" Colorway
Releasing exclusively at GRAFT.PD in Shanghai.
ACRONYM has teamed up once again with 3D-printed footwear brand ALIVEFORM to release a new “SILVER FANG” colorway of THE BLADE. The shoe will launch exclusively at GRAFT.PD’s Pudong space in Shanghai as part of a special project for the brand’s Open House event this November.
Inspired by Tsui Hark’s 1995 martial arts film *The Blade*, the shoe’s design merges ACRONYM’s signature techwear aesthetic with ALIVEFORM’s 3D-printing technology to create a highly sculptural silhouette. The shoe features a barefoot construction to prioritize natural foot movement and flexibility, while an open mesh design extending across the upper and sole improves breathability. Cushioning, support, and flexibility are integrated directly into the 3D-printed structure, eliminating the need for traditional stitching or glue.
This new “SILVER FANG” colorway further enriches the visual language of THE BLADE and will be available exclusively through GRAFT.PD.
Additionally, GRAFT.PD in Pudong, Shanghai, will host an Open House event from November 7th to 8th. The event will showcase the FW26 collection alongside exclusive releases and offer an opportunity to interact face-to-face with the designers. GRAFT.PD has long supported independent designers exploring the intersection of clothing, the body, and technology, and this event will further highlight different creators’ perspectives on the future of apparel design.
