"Egg Box Sneakers extend designer Vadim Kibardin's ongoing exploration of cardboard, paper, and packaging as mediums for design and artistic expression. Over two decades, his practice has focused on rethinking the value of discarded materials, demonstrating how they can be recontextualized into objects that engage both the visual and tactile senses."

Egg Box Sneakers are handcrafted entirely from recycled egg cartons, converting 100% packaging waste into a contemporary sneaker silhouette. Each pair is constructed using only two types of carton egg boxes, investigating structural and aesthetic potential within limited resources. The project reimagines everyday waste as sculptural design and extends Vadim Kibardin's long-term exploration of cardboard, paper, and packaging as creative media. Simplicity and constraint function as tools for experimentation, while sustainable thinking merges with sculptural form to emphasize material innovation, environmental awareness, and the tactile and visual qualities of reused materials.
