Enfold

Upper made of regenerated leather scraps;
sole made of 50% recycled post consumer soles, 25% virgin natural rubber, 25% virgin synthetic rubber.

Production of bags generates a higher amount of leather scraps of a bigger size compared to shoes. Thanks to the patchwork technique, we have been able to repurpose and up-cycle the leftovers that we constantly collect.
With our latest sole, we have advanced further in our pursuit of a circular shoe. In collaboration with the University of Chemnitz, we have engineered a new rubber compound that is both recycled and recyclable. This compound comprises 50% shredded worn-out soles sourced from our repair workshop, 25% virgin natural rubber and 25% virgin synthetic rubber. (Find this sole also on the Proto, Revive and Clearcut styles)
