Steel-Toe, Street-Ready.

Mellow Walk is a Toronto-based comfort safety shoe company, where I led design, production, and sourcing for all product lines. I contributed to end-to-end footwear development—handling pattern making, trend research, quality control, and process improvement—to support a 500-pair-per-day factory operation. Projects were deeply researched and prototyped, often uncovering gaps other brands overlooked. Our street-inspired skate shoe turned heads in the athletic safety market—surprising customers with a hidden steel toe and exceeding first-year sales expectations by 300%.
