ECO-SUSTAINABLE FOOTWEAR
Maurizio Dara, for personal need and as a philosophy of life, felt the need to create a footwear product, which could combine the recycling of existing products and eco-sustainability: for these reasons the project of made-in-Italy sneakers was born in 2010 realized by the recycling of advertising billboards.
