Concept and aims of the project:
- Use old material.
- All the parts of the product may have been replaced during its use.
- Offer the user the opportunity to create their own design. Play with laces, socks, soles, and ribbons.
- The shoe is suitable for all seasons. Depending on the season, the sock that goes inside can be made of different materials.
- Use as few composite materials as possible. If possible, do not use glue.
