Lately our DM is always full of Instagram profile links for us to discover new brands and give them coverage. “Mention in the comments that brand or that designer and we’ll take care of the rest,” we post on our profile. In less than 24 hours we received almost 1500 comments from the young promises that are making it big in the national fashion industry. With the aim that all these interesting projects are not lost in our DMs, each month we will choose 6 emerging brands and give them their space in HIGHXTAR.
For this emerging brands we have decided to make a SPECIAL SHOES and we have selected the coolest brands of shoes that you should sign for the new season. Stay to discover them!
Pet Liger
Constantinos Panayiotou, the creator of Pet Liger, has managed to make the metaverse his business. His designs, turned into NFTs, have all fashionistas with their mouths open. His shoes are inspired by manga images from the 90s and are a good preview of what awaits us in the shoes we will wear in the future.

Melissa, established in 1979, creates innovative fashion footwear inspired by art and design. The brand collaborates with renowned artists and designers, including Jean Paul Gaultier, Vivienne Westwood, Marc Jacobs and more. Its iconic model, POSSESSION, gained global recognition in the 1990s.
Melissa shoes are made from Melflex®, a recyclable and vegan material. As part of Grendene, they prioritize sustainability and responsible production.

Belgian designer Mats Rombaut founded a brand that prioritizes ethics and sustainability in sneaker design. A vegan since the age of 21, he offers stylish, unisex footwear that aligns with his values. Inspired by socially responsible youth, Rombaut envisions a future where nature and its inhabitants are respected. Its shoes feature futuristic aesthetics with thick soles, innovative materials and bold elements. Made from vegan leathers such as apple waste and corn husks, the shoes are made in Portugal using recycled materials.
Rombaut collaborates with other designers, such as Angel Chen, resulting in avant-garde versions such as “Boccachen”.
Gedebe
GEDEBE brand was born in April 2010, created by GIUSEPPE DELLA BADIA, 36 years old from Naples. He graduated in law but has always been in love with fashion and craftsmanship: very talented in embroidery with stones and crystals where he mixed textures, fabrics and colors in an intelligent way. A work experience in haute couture allowed him to start his own collection that fuses his skill and creativity with the best Italian leathers and artisanal traditions. That is Gedebe, a unique piece: a leather bracelet hand-embroidered with crystals and stones, embellished with studs and topped with a silk bow. Gedebe is a sophisticated and new mix that brings uniqueness to this rich and unique piece.
Black Suede Studio
In late 2018, Black Suede Studio launched as a premium footwear brand designed for the work-to-play lifestyle. We are known for our refined aesthetic and polished designs that aim for elevated style, while never sacrificing comfort. From the height of our heels and the flexibility of our materials, to the shape and construction of each silhouette, every detail is created with all-day wear in mind.

Ugo Paulon’s collections are based on the availability of stock and reused materials. Like objet trouvé art pieces, Ugo Paulon’s signature aesthetic is influenced by this inverted design process. His models are characterized by an inflated look.
