GT-R Collaboration: Second Edition

This model represents the second collaboration between NEGRONI and the Nissan GT-R 2025 edition. Guided by key figures in GT-R development—Hiroshi Tamura (Brand Ambassador, Nissan Motor Corporation) and Mitsunori Morita (Chief Designer, Global Design Division)—the IDEA CORSA has been re-engineered using a custom pattern exclusive to the GT-R edition. Featuring iconic 2025 GT-R color schemes, the materials, hues, logo hardware, and even the smallest details have been fine-tuned to create a truly special edition.

Midnight Purple

In this project, NEGRONI achieved what was long considered impossible: replicating the enigmatic Midnight Purple in leather. By adapting the production method of "gloss leather," the surface of the leather is carefully buffed to create a pearlescent layer that shifts between purple and green. A thin resin topcoat adds a captivating, high-gloss finish, allowing the color to dramatically change depending on the angle and light—perfectly embodying Midnight Purple’s signature allure.

IDEA CORSA GT-R Edition

The IDEA CORSA is NEGRONI’s flagship driving shoe, designed to pursue the ideal in driving performance. Its robust fit holds the entire foot securely, offering exceptional control and comfort during spirited driving. This peerless foot feel was personally recognized by Hiroshi Tamura, a key figure behind the GT-R and Fairlady Z, leading to this collaboration. The heel guard has been updated with a bold design inspired by the GT-R’s taillights, while the piping features NISMO-inspired red accents. Additionally, the tongue has been redesigned in a three-dimensional form to provide even greater fit and comfort compared to the base IDEA CORSA model.

Exquisite Emblem Craftsmanship

The GT-R emblem underwent meticulous development to achieve a flawless finish. It features nickel plating and dual-color infill of pearl red and black. Particularly noteworthy is the ultra-fine clearance of around 1mm between the GT and R letters, requiring highly skilled craftsmanship for the black enamel application. This emblem is crafted by expert Japanese metalworkers.

A standout detail is the embossed GT-R logo embedded in the leather, inspired by the detailing of the GT-R steering wheel. This involves manually thinning the leather backing and precisely adjusting thickness layers to create a powerful embossed effect—an exclusive technique achieved by one of NEGRONI’s master craftsmen.

T-spec Emblem

The signature T-spec emblem, characterized by its unique bluish-gold hue, required multiple tests to perfect. Instead of standard gold plating, a special stone-textured finish was applied to raw brass, followed by a clear coating that preserves the material’s natural expression. This delicate process captures the refined and distinctive look of the T-spec badge found on the GT-R.

Fit Considerations

The IDEA CORSA is built on a 3E last, offering generous width and instep volume to suit a variety of foot shapes, particularly those common in Japan. The newly developed bucket insole delivers exceptional heel and arch support, enhancing rigidity and enabling a more sensitive, precise driving feel.

Driving Performance

Whether for everyday driving, three-pedal sports driving, or high-speed performance, the IDEA CORSA excels across all scenarios. Its superior driving dynamics have been recognized as a benchmark in the development of leading super sports cars both domestically and internationally. It is also regularly featured in European automotive television programs as a reference point for motorsport evaluations. For those seeking to experience NEGRONI’s renowned driving philosophy for the first time, this model comes highly recommended.
