Yes, you didn’t read that wrong—Italian brand ASH has announced an official collaboration with Nespresso to offer two new eco-friendly sneakers. We’ve seen many collaborations up to date, but it might be the first time we are seeing one based on coffee and footwear. But one thing in common that the two have are that both are an essential part in one’s life.

Introduced as part of ASH’s sustainable project “RE/ASH”, the duo utilizes Nespresso’s recycled coffee grounds and capsules as part of the production to reduce waste and also reflect signature colors and patterns of the latter.

With the FORWARD sneaker, a casual and minimalist look is offered with a retro silhouette that features a cream color leather upper with velcro buckles alongside the normal lacing system. Decorations on the outsoles comes in the form of splatter marks which resembles grains of coffee grounds. Each pair is said to contain 7 cups worth of coffee grounds and aluminum equivalent to 13 capsules.

On the RESTART sneaker, the duo looks to ASH’s avant-garde aesthetics with colored linings inspired by Nespresso’s capsules. Equipped with an oversized outsole, the sneaker is finished in a more sporty fashion as compared to the FORWARD. Each pair is said to contain 15 cups worth of coffee grounds and aluminum equivalent to 10 capsules.

With a release date of 15th December, the Nespresso x ASH FORWARD and RESTART sneakers will be made available in 2 colorways respectively via ASH.
