The internationally patented w-lift™ technology has been developed in collaboration with e-Novia, Politecnico di Milano and the Move research team.
With them, we conducted studies on gait analysis & its recognition, and terrain analysis & its recognition. These studies allowed us to create smart shoes that can understand how the person walks thanks to the information gathered by embedded sensors in the soles.
International research studies have demonstrated that, with customized and continuously diversified support from the soles, standing and walking require far less energy, thus lowering fatigue and promoting healthier habits.

This has brought us to designing shoes with technological components that can be easily substituted thanks to a plug-in/plug-out system, allowing for maintenance, repair, and optimized recyclability in the disposal.

Fit is medium wide. WAHU shoes’ upper is made of padded and soft materials making the upper comfortably flexible while nicely sustaining the foot in position.
The sole and insoles are on the wider side (broader in the front of the foot), making walking more balanced and keeping your feet well anchored to the ground.
For comparison, sizes are aligned with adidas stan smith.

Shipping and taxes (where applicable) will be charged separately prior to shipping. We will send out a survey after the campaign ends, before shipping.

Estimated international shipping costs are $15 - $60 USD per pair of shoes.
Duties will be charged where applicable.
