          6. Meet Mikio Sakabe From Grounds, the Japanese Designer Bringing Impossible Shoes to Life

          It sounds counterintuitive to want to feel the ground through your shoes, but not to Mikio Sakabe. The Japanese designer first explored the idea in through his label, Giddy Up, which offered 3D-printed sneakers that bore less resemblance to shoes than to retro-futuristic furniture.

          When the label was rebranded as Grounds in , Sakabe’s footwear designs became even bolder. One of the first silhouettes he introduced was the Jewelry shoe, whose soles look like beads on a necklace. The soles’ purpose, aside from attracting attention, is to make you feel like you are walking on something fluffy, or even floating.

          “My biggest dream is to change the relationship between humans and gravity,” shares Sakabe, who was in town for the launch of Grounds’s pop-up in Club21 at Como Orchard.

          At the entrance of the store, Sakabe’s design experiments are on display: there’s an installation of Grounds shoes suspe
