Dada Supreme Chrome CDubbz Sneakers
The Dada Supreme Chrome C-Dubbz sneakers are built around an intentionally heavy, high-volume silhouette: a tall collar, a thick tongue, and a wide forefoot that reads as protective and stable. The upper is typically constructed from layered synthetic panels with pronounced overlays, giving the shoe a structured, armored look and a more rigid feel than minimalist basketball uppers. Stitch lines and panel breaks are used as graphic elements—sections are segmented, stacked, and outlined to create depth, with glossy “chrome” accents placed to catch highlights and exaggerate contour changes as the foot moves.
Branding is designed to be unmistakable at a distance. Expect oversized side marks, large-scale heel or tongue identifiers, and bold, high-contrast placements that function like visual anchors on the lateral and medial sides. The chrome treatment usually appears as reflective or high-shine synthetic components (often on overlays, badges, or trim), creating a hard, metallic read against matte base materials and emphasizing the shoe’s sculpted geometry.
Padding and fit cues tend to be substantial: a thick collar for ankle cushioning, a padded tongue that fills the lace channel, and a lace system supported by reinforced eyestays. This combination aims for a locked-in, “wrapped” fit—more secure and cushioned than sleek—especially through the midfoot where the overlays and lacing work together to reduce lateral movement.
The sole unit is equally assertive. The midsole sits tall with a broad footprint, visually communicating impact protection and stability. Tooling is typically chunky and segmented, with sculpted sidewalls and recesses that add shadow and definition. The outsole commonly uses deep grooves and a dense traction pattern intended for grip and durability, with a flatter contact area and widened edges that support hard stops, pivots, and lateral cuts. Overall, the design language prioritizes structure, cushioning volume, and visual force—built to feel protective under load and to look loud even when standing still.

GENERAL RESEARCH OFF-SITE
Designed by architect Shin Ohori of General Design for Setsumasa and Mami Kobayashi, founders of General Research. Located in the Chichibu mountain range northwest of Tokyo, the site serves as both a personal weekend shelter and a field-testing ground for product development.
The structure is built on an elevated platform using locally harvested larch wood and features removable walls made from fiber-reinforced plastic. It includes two yellow dome tents used as permanent sleeping areas—one placed on a secondary deck and the other on the roof of the main volume. The central enclosed space houses a kitchen and dining area.
The shelter is equipped with electricity, hot water, internet access, and basic amenities, including a clawfoot bathtub. The location is remote but accessible, allowing the Kobayashis to engage in maintenance tasks and outdoor work while still performing professional duties remotely. The architecture is intentionally simple and functional, emphasizing modularity, environmental responsiveness, and a hybrid of modernist design with primitive outdoor living elements.
The project operates as a live-in testing platform for lifestyle and gear integration in a real-world setting, merging domestic space with performance wear prototyping. It represents an approach to architecture and living that prioritizes adaptability, utility, and a direct relationship with the natural environment.
