With Bopular
Co-branded with Watch the Wind

On the occasion of the fifth anniversary of the founding of Watch the Wind, we reached a joint consensus with the manager Bopular.
In this cooperation, we started from the existing international line outsole, combined with the brand tone and the trend of light outdoor, to create and launch this outdoor cross-country running shoe WTW001.

_Sketch

Inspired by the spread wings of the honey buzzard:
the wrap tightens like the feather rachis lifting into flight,
the vents run through like wing breath,
and the shoe balances tension and release the way the bird wings.

_Structure

Feather-rachis biomimetic system
Reproduces the honey-buzzard feather-rachis arrangement — the fit wraps and hugs like folded wings, dynamically locking the foot.

Scene

Boundary-free · city & trail
  • Relaxed outdoor, easy commute — one shoe for many scenes.
  • Grip on both wet and dry ground, adapted to diverse terrain.
  • Comfortable and springy in the city, stable and cushioned on trails.

Feel

Feel-first · performance & style in one
  • Good looks aside, comfort is the attitude.
  • Cushioning without compromise, rebound that doesn't fade.
  • A locked-in fit that follows the foot.

岩灰
The inspiration comes from the aura of the crested honey buzzard bird, drawing colors from the coarse sand and stones, paired with the silvery luster under the sunlight.

翎绿
The inspiration comes from the feathers on the wings of the crested honey buzzard, drawing green inspiration from the feathers, harmonizing with the colors of nature.
