  • Soft materials and rounded silhouettes provide comfort and a sense of stability, while quilted shapes adopt more extreme and irregular aesthetics.

  • Recycled down and inter-fiber recycling are utilized, with PTFE water-repellent finishes or recycled nylon helping to reduce environmental impact.

  • Through stitching and thermal bonding, a voluminous and asymmetrical surface is created.

  • A dramatic design is created by expressing dark tones and refined finishes that reflect the #GothLine aesthetic and #SportSmart narrative.

  • Environmentally friendly options are offered through laminates that do not use traceable leather or plastics, reducing the use of virgin synthetic fibers.

  • #PlantBased materials, recycled PET, and water-based PU are used with a focus on sustainable alternatives.

  • In order to reduce environmental impact, recycled and leftover materials are used to create joyful and creative products.

  • Limited edition collections are presented in collaboration with artists, and creative projects that recycle waste materials are carried out.

  • Production waste is repurposed as a source of creativity, contributing to the development of new design ideas.

  • Semi-transparent #BioMaterials and plant-based alternative materials are used

  • Provides lightweight and durable performance through recycled and regenerated nylon

  • Prioritize ethically sourced leather by selecting leather that has undergone a traceable supply chain and water-saving tanning processes

  • Use prints and dark colors that can cover the natural grain of leather

  • It is important to choose recycled or water-based PU and use alternative or low-impact synthetic materials


  • By using small-sized meshes, functionality, durability, and weather resistance are enhanced, addressing the demand for materials with outdoor water repellency.

  • Strengthen waterproof functionality to cope with irregular weather patterns, introduce PFAS-free membranes to comply with sustainability regulations, and add ombré prints to provide new textures.

  • Consider single-material components and biodegradable fibers to enable fiber-to-fiber recycling after the product's life cycle ends.

  • Influenced by #SportSmart, bold and exotic designs featuring #AnimalPrints—centered on reptiles and snakes—are emerging.

  • Deadstock materials are printed with large-scale patterns, embossing, and glossy waterproof surfaces to create impactful visuals.

  • Investment is being made in sustainable components using #ResponsibleLeather, #PlantBased materials, and GOTS-certified organic or bio-based PU.

  • Through meticulously crafted lace designs, a blurred aesthetic combining elegance and dynamic performance is achieved, optimizing breathability.

  • Lace details and #Cutout features add rich texture while enhancing airflow.

  • Priority is given to using recycled industrial waste PU or bio-based polymers made from agricultural and food waste, along with the use of recycled leather.



  • Use of BPA-free, rPET, or recycled plastics

  • Reduce the use of virgin plastics by using biodegradable materials
