CYCHUNYI was founded by designer Yichun Liu. Her work explores familiar footwear through inversion, displacement and deconstruction.

CYCHUNYI grew from Departure From The Norm, Yichun Liu’s graduate collection in Antwerp. Reversed forms and shifted proportions became the foundation of the brand’s design language.

Familiar footwear is reworked through inversion, distortion and altered construction — from exposed soles and twisted uppers to shifted proportions.

CYCHUNYI shoes fit true to size. If you have a higher instep, we recommend taking one size up.

CYCHUNYI footwear is listed in EU sizing. Please refer to the Size Guide and fit notes on the individual product page before ordering.

If you are between sizes or unsure about the fit, please contact Client Services via support@cychunyi.com before placing your order. For a higher instep, we recommend taking one size up.
