Leather: Natural leather is a traditional material resulting from the tanning process of animal hides and skins, which occupies a key position in the footwear and haberdashery industry due to its mechanical resistance, breathability and aesthetic value. The specific reticular structure of the collagen fibres allows the material to adapt to the user's anatomy, resulting in optimum wearing comfort. As a hygroscopic material, the leather naturally regulates moisture and ensures air circulation. The appearance and functional properties, such as the degree of water repellency or texture, are defined by the specific type of technological processing, which include smooth finishes, suede or nubuck.

Textile: The textile upper of the sneakers is lightweight, breathable and comfortable, ideal for everyday wear and sports. It ensures air circulation, keeps feet fresh and adapts to their shape. Often complemented with synthetic or rubber details for durability and support.

Syntetika: The synthetic upper is made of synthetic materials that are lightweight, durable and easy to clean. It provides good protection against moisture and at the same time allows for a comfortable wearing experience.

Rubber: As a midsole, it is used when maximum stability and durability is a priority instead of soft cushioning. Unlike foam materials, rubber does not sag and retains its shape even under extreme loads. It is often found in minimalist footwear for natural contact with the terrain or in work boots where it protects the foot from sharp objects. It provides excellent response and durability, making it a reliable element for specific sports disciplines such as weightlifting or skate.

Vibram® Megagrip: Vibram MegaGrip technology is a high-performance rubber compound that offers unrivalled grip on wet and dry terrain and is extremely durable. This technology is ideal for long distances and new adventures, whether you're an athlete or a lover of the outdoors.
