F/CE. "MODULAR UPPER BEETLE LO F/CE."
MODULAR UPPER BEETLE LO F/CE. 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.
Its most striking feature is the detachable upper component.
By removing this part, the shoe transforms into a stoic silhouette reminiscent of mountain boots, showcasing the signature F/CE. flair for modular and variable design.
The interior of the detachable part features core material to create a three-dimensional, structured form, making it easy to balance with voluminous bottoms like wide-leg pants.
The lining utilizes waterproof and breathable SHERPA lining to ensure comfort.
The insole features the highly cushioned SUICOKE SOFT STEP, the midsole uses Vibram LCS compound, and the outsole features Vibram MEGAGRIP, which provides superior grip on both wet and dry surfaces.
A removable flap reduces the entry of dust and debris, while reflective-woven laces and an easy-access lacing structure enhance both ease of wear and visibility.

(Functionality. Culture. Exploration) creates functional and high-quality wear and bags based on contemporary fashion.
Our products are not just intended to make the lives of their users more convenient, but to enrich their lives themselves.
We pursue creations that bring new awareness and discovery, using cultures from around the world as design inspiration.
Each season, the collection theme is a single country chosen from around the globe. By actually visiting the country that serves as the theme, experiencing its daily life, history, architecture, art, and music, we incorporate the inspiration felt locally into our designs and details. Another thing we value is specs, functionality, and a high degree of perfection as tools. F/CE. products are only complete when the functions for living comfortably in the city are combined with images obtained from travel.
