Vibram—it of “FiveFinger” shoe infamy—is hawking a new offbeat concept in footwear: the “Furoshiki”
sneaker. Inspired by the Japanese tradition of bundling objects in
fabric, the shoe comprises the world’s first wrap-around outsole. The
Furoshiki neither uses nor requires laces. Instead, it features elastic
bands that secure around the ankle via a Velcro closure. It’s also
designed to adapt easily to any surface, which “guarantees comfort and
durability,” according to Vibram.
