To
On
Demand
The most sustainable product is the one that's never made. 24 billion shoes are made every year. 1 in 5 go straight to landfill. With on-demand, we drastically increase sell-through and minimize overproduction and waste.
Zero
Waste
By some counts over 70% of material stock is wasted across product creation. Our new shoemaking techniques leverage 3D printing and 3D knit technologies that are zero waste, allowing for lower impact manufacturing.
Circular
Design
Design and engineering for modularity and disassembly is core to our approach to circular design. We are committed to using recyclable or bio-based materials, and our printed products are are 100% recyclable.
