| WAHU product is the very first active sole able to adapt its morphology to changes both in the external environment, like terrain, temperature or humidity, and in the dynamic state of the user. Thanks to the unique Italian design and the latest technology, the sole right balances the hi-tech functionality, and the style. WAHU active sole can changeits morphology thanks to a series of interconnected chambers, with a particular bellow structure, filled by air through a miniaturized electro-plunger, able to be locked and unlocked. This mechanism allows the sole volumetric changes and, consequently, its grip and cushioning. | $240K / Pre-Seed / Jun 26, 2019 | ||
