A modular trainer designed for disassembly

Sportswear brand Camper released their Roku trainer, a shoe that consists of six parts and is designed to be easily assembled and disassembled.

Roku means six in Japanese, referring to the interchangeable six parts of which the shoes consist. The parts are made of recycled compounds, like PET. Each shoe is made up of an outsole, an insole, an inner sock, a knitted upper with shoelaces and a cord.

The modular trainer is easy enough to assemble at home in ten steps. After use, it is easy to disassemble, as no glue is used, and therefore also easier to repair and recycle. In addition, the shoe can be fully customised.
