Wave Sneakers are inspired by sea, the waves and the different colours of the water sea – they present round cuts like the spiral movement of the waves and the blue tons goes from the dark blue of the profound sea to the Bright silver the sea foam. These sneakers are made in diverse bio leather with an excellent fit and very comfortable walk due to the recycled sole, the natural bio leather lining and the blue shoelaces for adjusting to the foot.
Wave Sneakers belongs to the upcycling line and the newest collection that intends to return to the essence of life and what we need - shapes inspired by sea creatures, simple shoes, strappy sandals and hyper-comfortable sneakers - the entire collection tells the story of our journey from the sea to space, from the beach to the depths of the sea. It is also an appeal to the non-pollution of the sea - our most precious asset and that balances our planet, a call to return to what is essential, not to waste, to recycle, to redo, to rethink.
