T-project
Transparent hergestellte Schuhe für eine echte Nachhaltigkeit
T-project steht für radikale Lösungen für eine kompromisslose Nachhaltigkeit und entwickelt kontinuierlich die Kreislaufproduktion und alternative Materialien. Die Austauschbarkeit von Teilen war schon immer ein wichtiger Aspekt unseres Designkonzepts. Im Laufe der Jahre haben wir immer wieder gebrauchte Sohlen, Lederreste und Prototypen gesammelt, die in B-Qualität hergestellt wurden. Neben Post-Consumer-Material und neuen Kreislaufmaterialentwicklungen bilden sie nun die Basis von T-project.
Firma/Institution
Trippen A.Spieth, M. Oehler GmbH
Berlin, 1991. Inspired to translate a new vision of transparency into avant-garde shoes, Angela Spieth and Michael Oehler founded Trippen. Embodying the spirit of their reunited city, the designers forged a distinct style through an interplay of restraint and creativity. Rubber sole moulds were reduced to a few styles chosen for optimal comfort while leather uppers offered limitless possibilities for creative expression. The signature design language that has since earned Trippen its international cult status emerged from this framework, to which the label remains true today.

Inspired to translate a new vision of transparency into avant-garde shoes, Angela Spieth and Michael Oehler founded Trippen in 1991. Today, trippen is run by Claudia Hoess and Michael. Karl Hoess grew up with Trippen and started t-project together with his father in the summer of 2021 while studying fashion design at the UdK Berlin. He discovered his enthusiasm for knitting and understood the possibilities of sustainability, from raw material selection to waste avoidance. Recently he chose "Circular Materials Management in Fashion" as the topic for his bachelor’s degree.
