匡威 PRODUCT (RED)是美国匡威公司和全球基金(Global Fund)合作的一项慈善计划,为非洲艾滋病患者捐献善款,同时纪念匡威百年,邀请全球百位艺术家设计鞋样。匡威公司看到寂寞.夏.日乐队在美国南西南音乐节(SXSW Festival)的演出后,邀请寂寞.夏.日乐队为其设计鞋样。邓裴成为中国唯一受邀设计的艺术家。
"鞋子我端详了几天想就这样原封不动的拿给你们,然后告诉你们我用心画了一些东西进去,如果看不到就是你们的问题了。好吧,还是现实一点:我没有买到长的带子所以我决定在下面打个结。又可以红和黑各一条,这样我想让我的带子也很特别,可以给带子取了个名字叫"相连" 。 关于画,我想让笔自然延续着,就这样有云出现,有水出现,在我们旅途中有一些盛开的生命出现。于是又可以取个名字叫"生命相连"。"
——祝福活着和活着以外的生命

About the shoe, I thought how to design it for several days, and then I thought I can send it back to you unchanged. And told you I have do some design on it, if you can't see it it's your problem. Ok, be realistic: I haven't bought long enough shoelaces so I decided to tie a knot below. Or we can use one black and one red. I think the shoelaces is special, so I named the shoelace "connection". About design, I want drawing going on naturally, so the clouds appeared and the water too; during our trip some lives in blossom appeared. So I named it: "lives connected"
