The Wick Culture - Helen Kirkum

Objects Helen Kirkum Legacy sneaker

Designer Helen Kirkum is disrupting the sneaker space with her waste-free approach. Pairing together the luxuriousness of made-to-order, exclusive designs with a sustainable mission, her Legacy sneaker offering invites you to send worn-down sneakers from your personal collection to her studio, where they are cleaned, deconstructed and reworked into a one-of-a-kind design. Even more exclusive than hyped up sneaker drops, this brilliant approach allows you to keep treasured sneakers and transform them into something exciting, stylish and immensely wearable, all while doing your part to reduce waste and live more sustainably. Kirkum will be sharing more on her made-to-order process at a London Craft Week talk on Thursday 7 October.
