IDEA CORSA × NISSAN Z NISMO STEALTH GRAY

NEGRONI’s flagship, the IDEA CORSA, reimagined in collaboration with the NISSAN Z NISMO. Finished in the distinctive Stealth Gray, this special edition captures a fresh, refined silver tone—contrasting the bold presence of the GT-R NISMO with a style suited equally to everyday wear.

❶ Essence — Design & Structure

The IDEA CORSA represents NEGRONI’s pursuit of the ideal driving shoe. This collaboration was supervised by Hiroshi Tamura, long-time chief product specialist for the GT-R and Fairlady Z and now NISSAN brand ambassador. The dedicated last is designed on a 3E standard, offering generous volume at the width and instep to naturally fit Japanese foot shapes. A specially developed bucket insole reinforces the arch and heel, enhancing overall rigidity while delivering sensitive and precise pedal feel.

❷ Expression — Materials & Aesthetics

The upper is crafted in Stealth Gray leather, finished with a matte protein treatment to faithfully reflect the NISMO design language. Checker steel leather is applied to the heel, topline, and twin eyelets, providing both durability and a lightweight feel. The side emblem also features checker steel leather instead of carbon fiber, creating a modern, refined impression. The contrast between these luxurious materials defines a driver’s style that is both sophisticated and dynamic.

❸ Response — Comfort & Sensitivity

The robust upper and firm hold of the bucket insole provide secure support across the entire foot. This ensures long-lasting comfort during extended drives while maintaining agile and precise pedal response. The balance of comfort and sensitivity makes this model equally suited for lifestyle use and spirited sports driving.

❹ Legacy — History & Heritage

This special edition was realized through the shared passion of Hiroshi Tamura, a long-time wearer of the IDEA CORSA, and NEGRONI. The Z emblem is crafted by a heritage badge maker with over 108 years of history. Achieved through countless micro-adjustments under one millimeter and delicate color inlays into ultra-thin grooves, the emblem stands as a symbol of the union between Japanese automotive culture and artisanal craftsmanship.

❺ Vision — Future Outlook

The IDEA CORSA × NISSAN Z NISMO Special Edition embodies the fusion of sports car heritage and the ideal driving shoe. Balancing everyday sophistication with track-proven performance, it offers a unique opportunity to experience the spirit of Z NISMO at your feet.
