Goldsmiths student Nicholas Bennett has created waterproof footwear for commuters, that can be integrated into a suit to protect it from the floods that might become our daily reality due to climate change.
The project imagines a future where the effects of rising sea-levels have become so inescapable, that solutions need to be integrated into our everyday products.
In this case, that involves waterproofing office-appropriate brogues by merging them with wellies and adding fluorescent orange waders.
These can be unfurled to groin height to keep the suit trousers dry or tucked away under their hem when not needed, with laces on the sides used to hide the shoes' bulky form.

"I cut the soles off a pair of old brogues and pulled the rest of the shoe over the top of the wellies," Bennett told Dezeen. "I wanted to use simple tools which most people would have at home, just like in the Protect and Survive videos from the late '70s that taught people what to do during a nuclear fallout with basic items like bin bags and suitcases."
In a bid to make do with existing resources and avoid the environmental impact of virgin materials, he used only reclaimed second-hand items.
"The plastic I used for the waders is from an old survival bag. This offers protection from the elements and is bright enough to call attention to yourself in case of an emergency," Bennett explained.
"I bought the brogues from a charity shop and made the holes for the laces from...
