The circular/modular Sneaker
2nd place in category Emerging Innovators
Our sneakers are designed for easy disassembly. You can swap out soles, change colors, and keep them feeling fresh for years. Made of just 5 recyclable or biodegradable components in Portugal, each part can be individually recycled into high-quality new materials. This process minimizes waste and supports a fully circular lifecycle for every element of the shoe. ♻️
