The Biotrainer utilizes all natural materials and evolves traditional running-inspired shoes with a translucent 100% natural latex outsole that is lightweight, cushioned and flexible. The natural latex has been produced in partnership with Lactae Hevea who exclusively use the milk of the Hevea Brasiliensis (rubber tree). After a four-month “winterizing”, spiral incisions are made into the tree bark, which releases the rubber milk without harming the vegetation. The seamless one-piece upper is made of semi-cordovan leather and the supportive heel counter—a feature borrowed from men’s classic dress shoe styles—is made of thick vegetable-tanned leather.
