Why We Love Shoe Soles Basic Edition

The soles are made of flexible plastic (TPU) which is non-toxic, skin-friendly and completely recyclable, and strong and durable enough to be worn outdoors. The soft, flexible nature of the soles means they are very comfortable to wear. They are easy to wash – even in a washing machine, and the durability and adhesive-free construction technique means that you can reuse your soles many times – create new individual footwear when the mood strikes you!
