About the FW 26/27 Collection

In the rhythm of daily repetition, we gradually blur our own outlines to soften the world's impact.

We avoid receiving every sensation too directly—rounding off our sharp edges and dulling our perception to endure the everyday. This subtle numbing may well be a defense mechanism necessary for survival.

Yet, deceiving ourselves in this way cannot last forever.

At the deepest point of this process, despair gives way to resignation—and with it, a quiet sense of relief as we cease to resist.

The grounds FW 26/27 collection begins from that very space.

At its core lies the most fundamental human act: walking.

Change the sensation of a single step, and the body’s balance shifts.

Shift the body’s balance, and the direction forward subtly transforms.

A tiny variation beneath the feet quietly leads us toward an entirely new destination.

■This Season's New Soles

GRAFFITI
The GRAFFITI outsole reimagines grounds’ signature "MOOPIE" sole into a sculpted, architectural form. Crafted from phylon—a lightweight material offering high cushioning and superior flexibility—this new sole features organic lines flowing along the natural curve of the foot, overlaid with TPU fragments that create a subtle, rhythmic sway in motion. Lightweight yet expressive, this sole carries a quiet attitude. Sole height: 6.5cm.

MANUS
Derived from the Latin word for "hand," MANUS is built around a simple, physical promise: comfort so complete it feels as though you are being carried in someone’s arms. In place of a conventional footprint, the ground receives a handprint—an irreverent yet tender grounds gesture that transforms each step into a quiet moment of humor and care. Beneath its radically expressive design lies uncompromising functionality. The flexible phylon sole paired with a memory insole absorbs impact and adapts to the foot, enhancing the sensation of being held from the first step to the last. Sole height: 4.5cm.
