Camper introduces its newest work in the form of the ROKU Shoe line, which is a revolutionary idea that pushes traditional concepts and presents a new angle of unisex footwear. The name 'ROKU' stems from the Japanese word "six" which captures the energy of a unique capsule. It highlights sustainability and the notable Wabi aesthetic that the brand is known for.
The ROKU series presents modular, ergonomic designs that embody organic shapes and functionality that traditional Japanese items are made with a focus on. Six components can be altered as pleased -- the shoe highlights a cushioned footbed, a soft knitted upper, laces, a 3D sock, and a lightweight outsole provided by the XL EXTRALIGHT® SUSTAINABLE+ technology. This is made from 51% pre-consumer recovered scraps and by-products to reflect the brand's values.
