KangaROOS Ultimate Racer IV

Presentation of our first upcycled models: a creative and conscious approach to reuse our leftover materials and give them the opportunity to shine in a new design.

We have always been committed to sourcing our materials responsibly: we obtain most of our leather from Italy and our fabrics as well as our shoe boxes locally in Germany. In some cases, the minimum order quantities exceed our limited editions. Therefore, it is not always possible to avoid leftover materials. By giving our fabric waste a new life, we aim not only to reduce waste but also to encourage reflection on sustainable and eco-friendly fashion.

The Ultimate Racer IV combines the familiar silhouette of the Racer with the Ultimate sole. These sneakers are elevated to a higher level through high-quality materials, including smooth nappa leather, and masterful craftsmanship. The leather lining and patented DYNACOIL cushioning system in the midsole make the Ultimate Racer IV incredibly comfortable. The original KangaROOS pocket is located inside the tongue.
