Wetboot & Wetsands

From Industrial Scraps to Durable Footwear

About Wetboot & Wetsands

Wetboot and Wetsands are lightweight durable waterproof shoes. They are the seamless fusion of process, material explorations and everyday life.

The shoes are the result of material explorations with industrial scraps from a foam packaging supplier. The fabrication process is practically instantaneous, using simple molds and forming techniques and only few materials. This process is derived from the iterative analysis of fit and seam placement through trial and error.
