Understand The Main Categories Of Shoe Design

　　 footwear industry First started in family workshops and slowly invested. Industry Medium. At present, there is no shoe design course in the industrial design course, which makes shoe design a unique field in the industry. footwear industry Design is a combination of art and craft. If we want to familiarize ourselves with this lesson, we must first understand the main classification of footwear design. Sole , Shoe upper , Shoe mould Three main bodies.

1. Sole design: soles are mainly divided into: rubber MD, TPR, EVA and PVC are the four main bodies. The main software for sole design is CoreIDRAW, Freehand, CAM. CoreIDRAW, Freehand is mainly drawn from the bottom of the shoe. CAM is mainly used for shoe sole model design.

2, mold design: mold is used to shape the shape of a pair of shoes, the beauty of a pair of shoes is closely related to the mold. The main software used in mold design are CAM, 3DMAX and MAYA.

3, vamp design: the success of a pair of shoes is mainly on the upper, and the vamp design is divided into three main parts: manuscript design, computer design and paper design.

4. Manuscript design: manuscript design, which is often referred to in our art as sketch, also called sketch. As long as the style of shoes is drawn, the design of manuscripts can become an aesthetic feeling of art.

5, computer design: the premise of computer design is also called computer color matching. It is the allocation of colors in all parts of the shoes with the manuscript or the original shoe pattern. The single computer color matching is very simple, so long as we operate PS skillfully, we will have a reasonable color matching. Computer design is different. In many cases, there is no original shoes or pictures. Many styles, such as shoe sole replacement, high frequency, differentiation, electric embroidery, drip molding, and so on, must be matched reasonably. Color matching is the most important thing, and to understand the genetic color of various materials, the color palette in the computer, and some materials can not be transferred to other colors. The computer design should not only be fashionable, but also be collocated accurately. There must be no color difference. We should also consider its production process. There is no mistake in it. In the computer design, there is a computer level, that is, scanning the paper plate into the computer, and then grading and cutting the code according to the printing line. Commonly used software is: Hua Shi, shoemaking star, and these softwares are generally complete with cutting machines, and software and cutting prices are relatively high, so small factories or companies usually have no computer level. Hua Shi, the shoe star is a CAD transmission software, and its function has many functions that CAD does not have. The biggest drawback of this software is that it is not the software of the same manufacturer. If you learn it, you will not use it.

6, the paper design: the cardboard designer also called the edition teacher, the paper edition design mainly carries on the accurate edition design to each part of the shoe. A print master not only needs to know craft, but also understands art and materials, and the success of a product has artistic beauty.
