Shoe design inspired by the silk road: combining tradition and modern innovation

Abstract

This study examines the integration of national traditional elements from the Silk Road into modern shoe design. The main distinctive elements are Chinese embroidery, Persian geometric patterns and Central Asian leather craftsmanship. This craftsmanship has existed for thousands of years. Using cultural traditions and modern innovations in technology, we can create unique shoe designs that enhance aesthetics while maintaining the national identity of Chinese culture. In addition, integrating traditional elements into shoe design allows us to expand our product range and meet consumer demands.
