Key Products
Four core series; Birkenstock-style casual shoes; 3D-printed home slippers
Technological Advantage
In-house SLA process at 50-micron precision enables mass production of lattice-structured footwear without tooling, reducing lead time and cost. The lattice design is based on a proprietary foot-shape dataset, providing a fit advantage for Chinese consumers. The process is protected by trade secrets and design know-how; no patents were found. The Red Dot Design Concept Award 2025 provides third-party design credibility.
Differentiation
