Background
Most current shoes consist of 10 to 20 materials and are close to impossible to repair or dismantle for reuse.
Cute shoes of the future
The designer proposes new, alternative techniques in addition to current production methods. One suggestion is 3D-printed soles of either 100% monomaterial that can be recycled, or substrate grafted with mycelium that can be composted. The knitted part of the shoes is removable and easy to repair. The project is a more accessible way of creating sustainable footwear where a seamless integration of nature and technology can reduce the industry's impact on the environment.
