LOOP- BERAFOOT SHOE
A barefoot shoe is made of one-loop yarn using 3D knitting technology. The barefoot category has gained momentum in recent years due to the values that characterize it: a flexible, airy, comfortable, and most importantly, beautiful shoe.
The project examines the sneakers category, which is characterized by innovation, compared to the characteristics of the barefoot category.
hoosing a thick thread diameter to preserve the memory of the craft is an artisan skill that is very characteristic in the field of footwear








Process




configuration
Slip-on shoe composed of two parts, a textile upper made with 3D knitting technology and a removable insole made of silicone.
After the 3D knitting, the removable insole is inserted into the "sock" and the entire shoe is dipped in liquid silicone. This technology allows for the use of a thin sole and the determination of the size and volume of the shoe.


Every day, all day.
An airy, loose, pleasant feeling, wraps the leg like a sock
