Entry Description

ADAMAS is the synthesis of vaporous soul and ruthless technology. It is like a high capacity creature from the world of cyberpunk, hiding a peaceful mind in the hardened shell, wandering on the edge of high urbanization.
The inspiration of ADAMAS comes from unpolished diamonds. The design of the shoes reflects the designer’s view on the future status of urbanization. With a soft canvas upper and sturdy sole, it can give outstanding performance on any sophisticated or sharp ground in a city.
