ABOUT

XpreSole® Panto an ecofriendly SCGs reused and ultra-lightweight rainboot!

One pair of XpreSole® Panto makes from 15 cups of Spent Coffee Grounds (SCGs), a massive source of greenhouse gases when they are landfilled. With the circular economy in mind Panto upcycles SCGs as the major component of the boots. Our innovative process covers a pair of boot lifecycles closely associated with community engagements from material harvest to reuse.

With our innovative coating technology, XpreSole® Panto designs as a rain boot based on a balancing act of sustainability and functionality. Opposite to the traditional rainboots, it reduces two-thirds of the boot’s weight, and machine-washable, without compromising the style in the wet climate. It’s also double-layered dirt/oil proof, moisture-wicking, odor control with all the unconventional features. Not to mention ultra-lightweight, XpreSole® Panto responsive, resilient extra bootie designs to protects ankles while maintaining flexibility with a patented aggregative high-grip outsole.
