HAKONE TRAINER - ORIGINS

Inspired by Japanese runners from the ‘70s , our Hakone Trainer perfectly blends vintage vibes and a contemporary, sleek aesthetic. Its distinctive style provides unmatched comfort and a sophisticated look.

For this specific iteration our iconic model has been revamped with a bespoke BYBORRE textile. The artwork traces back to the origins of the brand’s logo, leveraging BYBORRE's signature 3D technology to bring to life STUDIO TYRSA's research work on the brand's design language.

It is executed in a merino wool blend, overlaid with butter soft suedes and sitting on a VIBRAM outsole. Each pair uniquely features a mismatched piece of the allover design and is complimented with co-branded sock-liners and two sets of laces. 

Style for miles.

QUALITY

Quality is not just an outcome of the materials and components you pick but even more so of the process and expertise of assembling them. Our sneakers are handcrafted on old machines, piece by piece, by skilled and experienced artisans. They are actually built the same way traditional shoes are made: obsessing the smallest details and all the steps of the process, developing the right last, drawing the right line, focusing on the right stitch… We believe it makes it the most honest product possible.

We are relentlessly challenging ourselves and our suppliers to put in place impactful methods to ensure increased longevity and recyclability.

MADE IN FRANCE

Our sneakers are made in France from the most premium -LWG certified- leathers. We focus on local sourcing and manufacturing for the highest level of craftmanship and quality but also the lowest carbon footprint and environmental impact.

At the same time, it’s about doing the right thing by promoting labour in countries and in factories where respect and dignity take precedence over the bottom line.

DESIGN ETHOS

We contemporize history by revisiting classic silhouettes with the highest level of sophistication and attention to detail. We are proud to say that our sneakers are humbly designed in Amsterdam and meticulously handcrafted in France, using the finest European materials.
