(01) — Zones
Tight whereit holds.
Around the midfoot the knit is dense and barely stretches. Over the toes it opens up into a mesh you can see light through.
The machine changes stitch nine times on the way from heel to toe. You can feel every change with your thumb.
(02) — Colour
Dyed inthe yarn.
Every colourway is dyed in the yarn, before knitting, so the colour goes all the way through.
That is why a Volt shoe is still Volt after three hundred kilometres of Rotterdam rain.
