To write new stories and leave a mark often you have to undertake with courage new ways.
And in the fashion you know: projects that hits you at first glance but appear pure ‘poetry’, often hide a lot of concrete and are able to really get in the world and in real life and mark the history of costume.
Speaking of ‘unconventional’ shoes we could cite many cases: from Crocs, the UGG, to remain closer this case, the Vibram Fivefingers.
Akkua is a shoe that will amaze you at first sight and could not be otherwise. A shoe that combines the concept of barefoot (bare-foot): a shoe that takes on the shape of the foot to perfectly recreate the walk as naturally as possible, with all the benefits, including medical , which are now scientifically proven.
Akkua is the result of scientific studies carried out in collaboration between Harvard University and the University La Sapienza of Rome investigated by Prof. Enrico War scientific director of Elav (www.elav.biz/), which show at a glance what the ‘barefoot’ best mechanical efficiency and that by wearing these the musculoskeletal system makes the most of its features locomotor (natural support of ‘forefoot while running, use of the elasticity of the connective plantar times, increased frequency of the step and reducing the time of application force) and the nervous system controls to better balance during movement.
The origin of Akkua is Decortex, the first company in Europe to screen printing and printing on stocking and the third in the world. The company that invented the sock slip in the eighties.
Akkua are realized by means of an external structure in rubber, which functions as a soft exoskeleton, combined with a stretchable sock to which is coupled a sole.
At White Milan discover a collection basically bipartite: on the one hand, there are models designed for the sport with a thin rubber sole with shock-absorber function, other than for the casual, leisure, with a genuine leather sole and small rubber round, just to avoid slipping.
The style of the new collection, as well as all-black and all-white models, which could be the perfect complement to the catwalk to look futuristic, includes a collection inspired by the 80s, made of psychedelic patterns and glitter effects.
