FLOWER MOUNTAIN UNVEILS COLLABORATION WITH NICHOLAS DALEY: Innovative Japanese footwear brand, Flower Mountain, is proud to announce an exciting new collaboration with London-based designer Nicholas Daley, merging his distinctive design philosophy with Flower Mountain’s expertise in technical performance footwear.
This limited-edition collaboration, which will launch in Flower Mountain’s FW25 collection, reimagines the bestselling Iwano 2 model, customised to reflect the essence of both brands.
By combining Japanese recycled nylon with water-repellent properties and natural waxed cottons, the shoe features a unique blend of materials with exceptional performance characteristics for outdoor terrain.
Key design elements include the Nicholas Daley signature tartan insole, antique brass detailing, and a Vibram sole with Flower Mountain’s signature design. A notable development is the custom cotton herringbone tape lace system, which provides a refined tactile experience.
The design also includes unique panelling details on the exterior and upper, creating a harmonious balance of distinctive design elements that reflect both Nicholas Daley’s signature style and Flower Mountain’s innovation. The result is a shoe that feels both contemporary and authentic, true to the stories of both brands.
“Working with the Flower Mountain team has been an incredibly rewarding experience, merging my design vision with the high-performance fabrics and materials they have perfected over the past decade,” comments Nicholas Daley.
“This collaboration introduces a fresh perspective on performance footwear—something unique and exciting—while staying true to my signature design details and brand DNA.”
Flower Mountain’s collaboration with Nicholas Daley was first unveiled at Welcome Edition at Paris Fashion Week and will be available to purchase with the launch of the brand’s FW25 collection.
