A unisex twist for the second collection from the Milanese designer, covering sizes 35 to 45

A+ originates and constantly takes inspiration from the urban and suburban scene. The two founders divide their time between Istanbul and New York, two stimulating metropolis from which they absorb positive vibrations that they transform into shoes. This radically innovative project sees the fusion of the technique and “substance” of a mechanical engineer, Murat Gol (son of second-generation shoemakers), with the creative mind of Francesco Marziali, born in the heart of the Marche shoe district.

He has been interested in design and visual arts since childhood, developing a strong passion for footwear. Not having attended specific shoe design courses, he defines himself as a proud autodidact and thinks that probably this factor gives him more freedom to use his own imagination without schemes or links to the past. The A+ brand was born in 2015 from the desire to create a project that goes beyond contemporaneity, with no connection to what exists or has already been seen. The strong and radical reinterpretation of sport shoes combined with a careful research into materials put it at the top of the list of the most interesting new brands.

Nowadays – only 8 months after its launch – A+ is present in countries like Japan, Singapore, South Korea, Germany, Hong Kong, Macao, the Netherlands, South Africa, Turkey and United Arab Emirates. Among the leading models we find A+ Waver, an ultra-technical shoe weighing only 85 grams that has a strong personality and a style that is both sporty and very sophisticated.
