A textile company based in Japan called Hosokawa Tex has incorporated Japanese paper with slip-on shoes.
Created as part of a project called ORIGAMIX, the shoes are made from Japanese Washi paper that is slit and twisted into yarn.
Described as being functional, lightweight, and minimal, the ORIGAMIX Washi-cloth slip-on can be comfortably worn barefoot thanks to its quick-drying, porous, and deodorizing properties.
The slip-on shoes are available in 5 different colours and 6 sizes, starting at a price of 12,000 yen.
