As a result of a lasting cooperation between Vibram and Ars Arpel Group, this past Wednesday January 26th students from Ars Sutoria School specializing in “shoe design and modelling” visited Vibram Albizzate headquarters (Varese, Italy) for a training day.

After a tour around the company’s departments (design, marketing, test park, laboratories and production), pupils were given the chance to promote a debate with Vibram designers, in order to ask them for more information about the process that allows Vibram to empower a shoe with an added value thanks to its soles.

“It’s always very stimulating for a designer to see the curiosity in the eyes of young people for the world which has always been hidden under the shoes”, remarks Defne Yalkut, Vibram designer attending the training day.
