Description
The Dream Core-inspired sneaker series seamlessly blends sustainability and innovation in its design. The color palette is inspired by the childhood dreams of Generation Z. This sneaker seamlessly blends fashion and athleticism, serving as a remarkably comfortable urban fashion piece. With a slip-resistant sole, it ensures practicality even in inclement weather, making it suitable for all-weather urban excursions.

Innovation
The combination of SPVC (recycled from cable shell and soft PVC scrap) and knitted materials ensures both environmental friendliness and comfort, while also adding a futuristic and technological touch to the footwear. The SPVC material undergoes 3D printing and painting processes to achieve its final form. The color scheme of these travel shoes is bold, breaking away from conventional expectations, and redefining the typical understanding of colors associated with sneakers.

Product Detail
Crafted with a commitment to eco-friendly practices, the toe cap and decorative elements utilize recycled PVC material, artfully sprayed to achieve the desired aesthetic. The shoe's upper is a testament to both breathability and environmental consciousness, employing a machine knitting process with lightweight, recycled materials. The tongue features Techno 3D spacer mesh fabric, enhancing ventilation and overall comfort. Moving down to the sole, recyclable EVA material is utilized, ensuring a lightweight, durable, and elastic foundation. This series not only embraces style but also champions responsible material choices, embodying a vision for a more environmentally conscious and fashion-forward future.

Specification
