This meant that we were able to have two of our shoe designs <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bridgestoitaly.org\/content\/roboshoe-italian-answer-global-competition-footwear-industry\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">produced in Italy<\/a>!<\/p>\n<p>With the help of Shoe Design professor, <a href=\"http:\/\/fashion.parsons.edu\/2010\/12\/03\/faculty-qa-professor-howard-davis\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Howard Davis<\/a>, we immediately had to create tech packs to present to the students of the Shoe Polytechnic in Italy creating our shoes.\u00a0 The next step in the process was a design and production consultation meeting with Giuseppe of Iris, who helped us select which of shoe designs we would have produced.\u00a0 Giuseppe worked closely with each one of us, reviewing our specs and measurements to ensure our designs would be interpreted perfectly.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/fashion.parsons.edu\/?attachment_id=3613\" rel=\"attachment wp-att-3613\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3613 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/fashion.parsons.edu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/04\/Shoes-11-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"570\" height=\"759\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>At the end of the first semester, our prototypes were delivered&#8230;.
