ELSTM<\/a> is stepping into the future with its second release, The Orca. The young, LA-based footwear label and deep tech company has made a name for itself in 3D-printed footwear, beating out the competition with its fully 3D-printed foam sneakers before industry giants like Zellerfeld<\/a> and adidas<\/a>. Now, with The Orca, ELSTM is ready to redefine what\u2019s possible in 3D-printed footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Designed and produced in California, The Orca brings a futuristic look and feel, elevating the potential of 3D-printed sneakers. ELSTM partnered with LaLaLand Production & Design, a major player in luxury manufacturing (with clients like LVMH and Amiri), to develop a shoe that marries disruptive innovation with time-honored craftsmanship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n What sets The Orca apart is its combination of ELSTM\u2019s pioneering 3D-printed foam technology and traditional construction techniques, such as stitching and lasting. The shoe\u2019s laceless upper, crafted from a breathable composite mesh, enhances comfort and convenience, while the ultra-responsive midsole pushes the boundaries of what 3D-printed shoes can achieve in terms of performance. ELSTM claims this comfort rivals that of premium running shoes \u2014 a first for 3D-printed footwear.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sustainability plays a key role in The Orca\u2019s design as well, with fully recyclable materials supporting the brand\u2019s commitment to local production in California. The eco-conscious construction aligns with the industry\u2019s growing push toward responsible manufacturing practices, giving The Orca both style and substance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n With its cutting-edge design, advanced tech, and focus on sustainability, The Orca looks to propel ELSTM even further into the spotlight, proving that the future of footwear is 3D-printed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The ELSTM The Orca is available now for $250 via Elastium.IO<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Keep it locked to Snkrs Day<\/a> on Instagram and the sneaker release dates<\/a> page to stay on top of the latest news and drops. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
