Melissa and Y/Project have revealed their fourth collaboration, debuting the Court Clog and presenting new colors of the Court Point Mule in a new collection releasing Aug. 5.
The Brazilian and French companies first teamed up in 2020, with their partnership becoming known for the popular Court Point Mule, an open-back kitten heel with an ornate textured pattern. Y/Project is known for blending historical references and modern designs “in playful proportion.”
The new Court Clog stays true to this; the official description of the shoe reads, “Introduced for the first time with Y/Project’s FW24 look book, and inspired by the Victorian Era, the Court Clog features intricate details that evoke a hand-sculpted aesthetic and it’s presented with a campaign shot in Paris by Arnaud Lajeunie, and videos by Luthfi Darwis.”
The 100% PVC platform clog is available in four colors: black, light blue, clear/white and a brown color with bronze-hued accents. Like its predecessor, the clog is also open-backed. The Court Point Mule is now available in light blue and pink options, both of which are transparent.
