NIMBUS MIRAI

The NIMBUS MIRAI is a performance running shoe specially developed for end-of-life recycling. It consists of a single polyester upper material and is made with a special adhesive that allows the sole and upper to be easily separated by heating. This construction enables clean separation of the materials and their recycling. The product concept is complemented by a collection system that facilitates the return of used shoes through 2D codes.

Statement by the Jury

The NIMBUS MIRAI running shoe impresses with its circumspect choice of materials and the associated recycling system, as they enable a material cycle.
