Bacteria will make long-lasting sneakers
Modern Synthesis will release technological sneakers that can be an excellent alternative to shoes made of genuine leather and synthetics. The material for them will be produced by Komagataeibacter rhaeticus bacteria.

Bacteria will make long-lasting sneakers


The production of sneakers starts with the creation of a two-dimensional framework of yarn, which is immersed in a fermentation environment of cellulose-producing bacteria. Next, microorganisms begin to weave the fabric over this frame. At the end of production, the shoes are sterilized, the bacteria are washed out.

The company is currently negotiating with several shoe manufacturers.
