A project with New Balance Tokyo Design Studio to jointly research the awareness and values of upcycling scraps and waste materials to update the distribution of shoes. For the first project, a shoe box was made from handmade Japanese paper made from scrap shoes, and for the second project, a prototype of shoes, shoelaces and shoe box were made from Japanese paper that was machine-made by crushing scraps.
These prototypes are exhibited at T-HOUSE New Balance. At the time of the second project, a sneaker wash service was provided and visitors can clean their own shoes, which is returned in a shoe box made of Japanese paper.
