KREIS – LAUF
Shoe Manufacturing Method
Since the beginning of the industrial age, the art of shoemaking has almost been erased. Today shoes are being mass-produced in standard sizes under questionable working conditions. KREIS – LAUF (ger. = cycle and/or walking in a circle) is a new manufacturing concept for sneakers that revitalizes traditional production methods and combines them with today’s rapid manufacturing processes in order to facilitate a shoe production that is sustainable in social, economical and ecological terms.
