Sara Gulyas is the creator of the Pikkpack -- a company that offers stylish DIY sandals and slip-ons. Though the company's slip-on shoes have been popular among fashionable creatives for some time, the latest DIY sandals offer consumers more variation in their designs as well as breathablity.
In the kits is a 2D piece of leather that has holes cut to allow consumers to attach their favorite color of lace. Also included is a carrying bag as well as instructions and a tutorial on how to craft the footwear without error. In order to get the DIY sandals, consumers simply select a shoe, sole and lace colors on the Pikkpack website, which offers various options to mix, making all-neutral or vibrant colorways possible.
