Background
Millions of shoes end up as waste and a global environmental burden. This calls for us to rethink shoe design from a circular perspective.
Uncompromising hiking boot
Working with vegetable tanned leather, certified wool and biosynthetic polyurethane made from castor beans, Laurits Skau Faaborg has designed a mid-cut hiking boot with replaceable and reusable components without diminishing the overall functionality.
