We’ve all had sneakers or shoes that have reached the end of their life. As easy as it is to toss them in the trash, we know that’s not an ideal solution. Disassembly Lab shows us the future of a circular economy, with shoes that can be easily taken apart, repaired, or upgraded.
The designs show a peg and loop style construction, which would allow for a range of styles of both uppers and soles. Check out the range of styles and patterns below.
Learn more about them on ECAL.


“The Disassembly Lab is a conceptual and formal study aimed at creating shoes integrated into a sustainable marketing system. Disassembly extends the life of a shoe, making it repairable, restorable, replaceable and recyclable. The aim is to rethink and redefine the way we build and assemble sneakers.”
