Putting its best foot forward, the DHL 1 Sneaker is a cult shoe with plenty of sole. My Budapester and sneaker legend Hikmet Sugoer’s fruitful collaboration placed the iconic red and yellow shoe center stage.

By reusing DHL’s red shipping bags, they showcase shoe upcycling at its best. And, as the bags are used not just in shipping but also in disaster response, it’s only logical that funds for disaster relief were raised from the sale of the shoes. This is how the collaboration made its name in several cultural spheres – in the sustainability debate and in the sneaker bubble community.
