Research
In this project we went through understanding what comfort really means. Speaking of that, sandals are always breathable but some of them on the market don't guarantee decent overall ergonomics. We designed a Pathway in a way to prioritse body motion and foot anatomy so it has potential of long usage.

Our Role
Testing different sandals from competition and previous 4F versions, we came into idea of construction changement. Thanks to that Pathway has unique way of connecting upper to sole where straps are going underneath footbed. This advantage improves a comfort for everyday wearing. In a Mens version it has also flexible part near ankle that makes it easier to fit different foot silhouttes. From now path should be even more enjyable in those sandals!
