ABOUT

Walk Tokyo and Walk London are the first in a series of city-based flipflops created by the Factory of Dreams – an offshoot of Fly Productions of London. Fly Productions - you might know – are the esteemed individuals who brought us the “Don’t Think, Just Shoot” Lomo book and the long-running LomoLondonGallery. Its head is Fabian Monheim – our retired Lomo Ambassador and current Tokyo resident. After all these years, he is still snapping away with his old and rusty, but tried and trusted LCA – and turning out images by the bucketload.

Factory of dreams invites designers from all disciplines to present their products and ideas to create contemporary design that is fresh and surprising. The walk the world series is soon to be extended with WALK NY and WALK PARIS versions. For more details, watch this space.
WALK AND SHOOT

The vibrant images that you see emblazoned against these flipflops are true Lomographic images shot by true, dyed-in-the wool Lomographers. The London and Tokyo images are courtesy of a tight foursome – Fabian, Richard, Masaki, and Momo. Throughout the course of a few days, the synergistic creativity and energy created by a group of Lomography-engaged friends is nothing short of incredible. Everything becomes a potential lens-target, and the resulting collection of photos can truly blow you away – as the images on these flipflops surely did. A very real and very great degree of love, comradery, and excitement went into these little shoes. Not to mention, they feel damn good on your feet.
SPECIFICATIONS

Packaging
Each flipflop starts off its life as a solid, homogenous hunk of foam. Said foam is promptly covered with approximately 50 full-blown lomographic images. Once printed, a metal die is employed to stamp the flip flops right out of the pattern. The position of each die stamp varies from unit to unit, making the exact markings of each piece subtly unique. When placed inside their foam housing, the flipflops complete a mini-sized yet maxi-charming “lomowall” presentation.

Material
Walk flipflops are carefully crafted in high-quality EVA foam. Designed to withstand even the most extreme beach, pool, or sidewalk situation, this foam and its full-color photo print are here for the long haul – even with your sweaty soles rubbing against it with every step. And, all of this excellent durability is combined with simply luxurious comfort – akin to tap dancing barefoot along a cumulus cloud.

Size Conversions
Three unisex sizes are available: small, medium, and large. The cut has a relaxed width with a natural oblique toe. Choose the size closest to your regular shoes.
