Ergonomics
You’ve never experienced a comfort like this.
New walking experience
We apply the latest technologies and ergonomic studies to create the best walking conditions.
We create shoes that adapt to every type of foot, providing greater levels of freedom. We split the sole into two parts to make the walking experience more comfortable, adding degrees of freedom to both foot torsion and bending.
Some Highlights
- Low vamp allowing dorsiflexion up to 15°;
- Wide toe to accommodate finger movement;
- Push-off movement facilitated by the split sole;
- Anatomically designed arch support;
- Sufficient space to allow plantar flexion up to 65°;
- Foot torsion enabled by the split sole;
- Weight distribution balanced across the foot tripod during standing and walking;
- Shock-absorbing insole layer.
The Lining
We tested all sorts of yarns, and went to loom with our own elaboration fabric, (technically a smart passive fabric), based on hemp, to guarantee breathability, thermoregulation and antibacterial properties to our linen.
The Upper
The shoes upper is a real construction prodigy being modeled in a single piece.
It is made with biopolymers deriving from corn orapples or rise, or citrus fruits, or mushrooms food chain processing waste.
The Split Sole
By splitting the sole into two parts, we have added degrees of freedom to both the torsion and bending of the foot, providing a comfortable walking experience.
