Designed for the everyday New Yorker! Comfortable, able to withstand the streets, weather, and lifestyle of NYC, easy to use, lightweight, versatile, breathable, & slip on sneakers! This sneaker is designed for disassembly, so it can be recycled at end of life. And it generates almost no waste in production due to its 3d knitted upper and 3d printed sole!

This shoe is the result of a material exploration Shima Seiki wholegarment knitting machines, where I created self folding knits inspired by origami. See more about origami knits.
