The MODULAR UPPER BEETLE LO from F/CE.

Born from a collaboration with SUICOKE, these shoes blend gimmicks with functionality.
The upper combines cow suede, hairy suede, and grain leather to create a sense of contrast and depth in texture.
The most notable feature is the detachable upper component.
By removing this part, the shoe transforms into a stoic mountain-style silhouette, showcasing the transformative and adaptable gimmicks characteristic of F/CE.
The detachable part contains a core material to create a voluminous, three-dimensional form, making it easy to balance with wider-cut bottoms.
The interior features a waterproof, breathable SHERPA lining for added comfort.
The insole uses the highly cushioned SUICOKE SOFT STEP, the midsole features the Vibram LCS compound, and the outsole uses Vibram MEGAGRIP, which provides excellent grip on both wet and dry surfaces.
A detachable flap helps reduce the entry of dust and debris, while reflective-woven shoelaces and an easy-lace system enhance ease of wear and visibility.

(Functionality. Culture. Exploration) produces functional and high-quality apparel and bags based on contemporary fashion.
Our products are intended not just to make the user’s life more convenient, but to enrich their life itself.
We pursue creations that bring new awareness and discovery, using cultures from around the world as design inspiration.
Each season, our collection theme is a single country chosen from across the globe. By actually visiting the country of the season and experiencing its life, history, architecture, art, and music, we incorporate the inspiration felt on-site into our designs and details. Another thing we value is high specifications, functionality, and perfection as a tool. F/CE. products are only complete once the images gathered from our travels are integrated into the functions required for a comfortable urban lifestyle.
