The  JACOB sneakers are a tribute to comfort,  minimalism, and classic design. They will easily fit into every outfit. Their upper is entirely made of vegan and plant-based alternatives to animal leather, i.e., **apple skin** which is produced from fiber coming from industrial apple juice and snacks production (black and beige JACOB sneakers) or**corn waste** from industrial production (navy blue). They are distinguished by their durability and ventilation, thanks to which they can be your faithful companion for years The inside of JACOB is lined with soft and flexible bamboo fabric, which will wrap your feet perfectly in winter and keep them cool in summer. It also has its natural antibacterial, anti-fungal and thermoregulatory properties to ensure comfort of your feet and the longest life for your sneakers! For the sake of your health, we decided to use a natural cork insole – durable, antiseptic, absorbing moisture and preventing chafing. The model was made using the so-called Strobel construction – a special shoemaking technology which allows you to maximize the comfort of the shoe and reduce the amount of adhesives used in the production by 70-80% compared to the studded technology. It makes the footwear even more breathable and prevents it from emitting unpleasant odors which the adhesives are usually responsible for when they come into contact with human sweat.
