If you know sneakers, then Salehe Bembury should be a pretty familiar name. Versace’s ex-vice president of sneakers and men’s footwear has a long, impressive resume. Most remembered for his body of work with Yeezy, bembury is also known for being part of the team behind the Cole Haan LunarGrand collection, which featured Nike Lunarlon cushioning. At Versace, the seasoned shoe designer redefined and provided the iconic label street red by coming up with its unforgettable collaboration with KITH just a few years back as well as the iconic Chain Reaction shoe, inspired by rapper 2 Chainz, that drew the Medusa back into this hip-hop-obssessed generation’s consciousness. Not bad for someone who got the Versace gig by sliding into one of the bosses' DMs on LinkedIn. Since his departure from the legendary Italian fashion house, Bembury has been busy with his own brand Spunge and collaborating with a bunch of different footwear brands like Vans, New Balance, Crocs, and probably the most surprising of all, Anta.
