We all wish our everyday shoes can do it all- comfortable enough to walk around without hurting the feet, light enough to keep up with our activities, and versatile enough to keep our feet dry during rainy days and match with our style from city to trails,Using upcycled coffee grounds as the main material of XpreSole® Boots, we greatly reduced the weight of the footwear, giving you burden-free movement when you’re out there exploring.
This is why we designed XpreSole® Boots, a pair of shoes ready to take on all kinds of weather conditions. Rain or shine, from spring to winter, XpreSole® Boots are here for you,Minimizing environmental impact without compromising on the quality and user experience is what we stand for. Certified by B Corporations, we make products that are functional and sustainable while demonstrating high environmental and social performance. By repurposing the used coffee grounds, we replaced 50% of the petroleum raw material used in your shoes.
XpreSole® Boots are comfortable, waterproof, breathable, light, and perfect for every season. The classic look also matches your style for urbanity or outdoors,Coffee gives us energy boost is no news. But we saw something more than its caffeine and its aroma, or to put it simply, we found great potential in the “waste” that can be transformed into something beyond your imagination.
Let’s break it down and see how we turn your everyday morning beverage into the awesome XpreSole® Boots,So, how exactly do we transform your favorite morning beverage to a pair of shoes,Coffee grounds collected from local coffee shops make up the main body of XpreSole® Boots, this not only contributes to the sustainability, but also brings wonderful features to the footwear.
Approved by SATRA, XpreSole® Boots keeps water out even when walking 100,000 steps on rainy days, and your feet remain dry under water 10cm deep,The shell is also stain resistant and easy to clean, embark on your adventure without worrying about getting messy! Simply rinse it with water to remove the dirt and stain effortlessly.
The durable shell protects your feet from the unforgiving conditions in the outdoors and handles all the tear and wear like a champ. It has great flexibility and fits your feet ergonomically. Even a long day of walking won’t hurt your feet.Outsole is the part that is in touch with the ground directly, and because of this we want it to be robust and able to handle surfaces of all sorts.
Midsole is the section of the shoe between the outsole and the upper, its main function is to cushion impact and contact from your movement. It’s an essential part of the shoe because it dictates how the ground affects your foot and how you really feel with the shoes on,XpreSole® Boots’ slip resistance is tested via SATRA, the leading technology authority for footwear. The coefficient of friction is above 0.5 on dry surface and 0.3 on wet surface, which is 94% higher than the international standard of slip resistance.
EVA consists of numerous tiny bubbles that hold air, so it’s low in density and therefore light in weight, which produces the great feeling of walking on clouds. Despite its softness, it is also springy enough to stabilize your steps. Through our patented foam injection molding technology, we mix eco-friendly EVA and coffee pellets to form the midsole of XpreSole® Boots, resulting in a padded, resilient and light footbed that offers you great comfort with solid protection.
Despite its durability, its flexibility also plays an important role. Our design makes the outsole durable and resilient at the same time, so you can confidently step out and make the most out of every condition,Level Up Your Stability with XpreSole® Blocks,XpreSole® Boots are available in 2 versions and the difference lies in the sole design. With Panto being the classic model, we designed a brand new edition - Blocks.
XpreSole® Blocks provides an increased stack height, amplified cushioning and better motion support. Taking inspiration from Lego, we added a bit of funkiness and playfulness to this version. For those who have an active lifestyle and seek additional joint protection, Blocks will be the one,
The notably increased midsole thickness is made for comfort and improved bounce, stability and shock absorption. Think of a puffy pillow that can absorb impacts from your motion. The thicker it is, the more comfort you feel from the cushion, though it usually means the heavier it is, which decreases the efficiency of your movement. With our patented technology, XpreSole® Blocks is able to remain super light with the stack height just right.
TPU is a material mostly used in professional footwear to boost athlete’s performance by improving flexibility and stability. With this in mind, we take Blocks to another level by creating a torsion control arch with TPU in the midsole, connecting the front foot and the heel by properly supporting the midfoot and delivering excellent rebound. This results in optimized energy absorption and return, and better protection for your ankle to prevent sprains.
The lining is how we make XpreSole® Blocks fit and protect your feet perfectly, molding to your feet like they’re being hugged. This special lining is made with S.Cafe® fabric, another incredible result of the upcycled coffee grounds! It possesses fantastic odor control, drying efficiency and softness. Due to the characteristics of coffee, these traits will not wear out over time.
The S.Cafe® pellets that are infused into yarns increase the surface area of the fabric and make the moisture evaporate faster. Through this technology, S.Cafe® fabric dries faster than most of the frequently used fabrics such as polyester or cotton. In the cold winter season, S.Café® keeps you warm by wicking the excess moisture, and it also helps cool down the feet temperature by 1-2 °C on humid, hot summer days.
Our feet have roughly 250,000 sweat glands, even more than our armpits do! Imagine having sweat trapped in your shoe… this is possibly one of the worst feelings you can have, and don’t even mention the foot odor that comes after, S.Cafe® fabric has countless micro pores on the surface so the odor particles can be trapped and eliminated easily. With S.Cafe® lining, XpreSole® Blocks help you get rid of the moisture and avoids unwanted odor, no more smelly feet.
S.Cafe®lining offers complete and secure coverage. You can also wear it like socks if you feel like going light, and the perfect fit makes it easy to put on or take off,Keeping the close-to-skin lining clean and hygienic is a breeze, washing machine can do the job for you! Certified by ISO, XpreSole® Boots can go through 100 times of washing and still remains good as new with the same color, shape and functions. No need to do the scrubbing all by yourself, cleaning has never been easier.
Designed for your ultimate comfort, OrthoLite® is one of the best open-cell insoles out there that has been applied to various renowned footwear brands around the globe. It is bouncy, moisture wicking, light, odor proof and tear resistant. And most important of all, these traits are permanent and won’t fade away after washing.
OrthoLite® insole is extremely moisture wicking and breathable. The unique moisture management makes air circulate freely and allows the moisture to evaporate quickly, keeping your feet dry and healthy and avoiding bacteria development. Sparing no detail, a thin layer of S.Café® membrane is added to the side that touches your feet to improve the odor control. Now we’re talking about the true experience of comfort.
The springy texture of OrthoLite® insole lasts long and gently cushions your feet. It gives great support and absorbs impact from the movements, protecting your joints and allowing you to go far with every step light and comfortable,To align with our sustainable concept, we use OrthoLite® EcoLT™ insole as a more eco-friendly option that replaces 11% of the petroleum with plant-derived bio-oil and recycled rubber.
Shoe laces may seem like a small part but we spare no details. Using the recycled plastic bottles as the material (rPET) for shoe laces, we offer these plastics another purpose before ending up in the landfill and cut down the energy use and CO2 emission,Taking every detail into consideration, XpreSole® Boots are made to carefully take care of all your needs, offering you comfort, functionality, versatility and sustainability.
Even if you’re a coffee lover, you might not know people consume 850 billion cups of coffee, producing 25 billion kilos of coffee grounds. When coffee grounds are not properly recycled, they generate harmful methane gas, We saw the potential of this underestimated material, and we have been working with local coffee shops to gather these coffee grounds to give them another purpose- This allows us to reduce the petroleum consumption by half in every pair of shoes.
XpreSole® is produced in a more sustainable way, using only vegan-friendly material to make sure our footprint is minimized to the lowest possible. Apart from our sustainable production process, we’re partnering with some of the organizations that strive to go extra miles on giving back to the environment. Our XpreSole® series is PETA approved, offering animal friendly products to our users. And once we reach the funding goal, we plant a tree through OneTreePlanted for every pair of shoes sold.
You have to order one of these before it's too late!
