Recently, the winners of the "2024 German Red Dot Award", an international design award that has attracted global attention, were officially announced, among which CGX's product CGX-X1010 hiking series won the "2024 German Red Dot Product Design Award". This honor not only demonstrates the strength of the CGX brand in design innovation, but also marks a new breakthrough in the design of CGX outdoor hiking shoes on the international stage.
As one of the top awards in global industrial design, the Red Dot Design Award, together with the German "iF Award" and the American "IDEA Award", is known as the world's three major design awards, and is known as the "International Industrial Design Oscar". Founded in Germany in 1955, the Red Dot Award has a history of nearly 60 years, and each year the award-winning works are selected by world-renowned design experts through rigorous evaluation criteria, representing the highest standards and the latest trends in the design industry.
As a brand focusing on the needs of hiking enthusiasts, the award-winning CGX light outdoor hiking shoes have always been committed to the perfect combination of professional functionality and comfort and fashion. As the main product of CGX-X1000 trekking series, X1010 has attracted wide attention from judges and the market for its unique design and excellent performance. The design of this hiking shoe fully considers the characteristics of Asian feet, and adopts an exclusive last created by Chen Guoxue, a great craftsman, to ensure that hikers can enjoy a more comfortable wearing experience during long-term outdoor activities.
At the same time, the X1010 has also made a significant breakthrough in sole technology. It features Vibram Megagrip, a material with excellent slip resistance that provides a stable grip even on slippery surfaces, giving hikers peace of mind. In addition, the Vibram Traction Lug design on the sole further enhances the grip of the shoe.
What's more worth mentioning is that the X1010 also adopts the midsole technology developed by special characteristics - CEBEBOSH® segmented midsole. This midsole design combines elasticity with firmness, with the front part of the foot feeling elastic and cushioning, providing excellent rebound feedback for the sole of the foot, and the rear part of the foot feeling is stiff to effectively protect the foot in the complex outdoor environment. This unique design not only enhances the comfort of the hiking shoe, but also enhances the practicality.
The Red Dot Award for the X1010 is another milestone moment for CGX's light outdoor hiking shoes before they officially meet hiking enthusiasts. As a new hiking shoe brand, CGX has adopted exclusive lasts that are more suitable for Asian people in the whole series, and cooperated with well-known performance material companies such as Vibram in Italy and Cordura in the United States to jointly develop each hiking shoe that is both functional and fashionable.
The X1010 won the Red Dot Award, which not only won the international reputation of the CGX brand, but also set a new benchmark for the development of the outdoor hiking shoe industry. In the future, the CGX brand will continue to uphold the concept of innovation and continue to launch more ingenious design shoes, inject new strength into the hiking shoe industry, and provide more high-quality, comfortable and fashionable outdoor hiking shoe products for hiking enthusiasts around the world.
