four-year research, development, and partnerships with footwear professionals, we managed to push

Skinners’ minimalist signature silhouette quietly hides more than 10 features you can rely on. Three- layered quick-drying StretchKnitTM made of 6 functional fibers, the durable sole from a Swedish polymer, a perforated insole, and anatomical fit based on scans of thousands of feet—these are just few. Skinners are handmade in Europe with unique, patented zero-waste technology. “We’re glad ourstartup is another example of responsible footwear manufacturing,” adds Prochazka.

Story of Skinners

Lightweight footwear “Skinners” was invented by young law clerk Petr Prochazka. The idea came from Norway, where he worked as a cook back in the summer of 2014. A breakthrough moment was when his friend injured a foot and could not wear traditional shoes. Struggling for a way to help him, Petr grabbed a travel sewing kit and created the first Skinners prototype. Two years later, he introduced the final product to the world via a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign that became the most successful footwear campaign at the time.
