ARMO Shoes that come in an envelope, which can be armed and combined.
Shoes to be transformed, customized, disassembled and flattened. A product that can be carried in handbags, suitcases, without bulk. That gives us choices, representing logistical support, since their transportation and warehousing space is infinitely smaller (1 box of traditional pair of shoes, equals 4 or more envelopes with a pair of ARMO®).
A pair of completely "light" shoes, comfortable, urban, to take life with joy and the power of surprise.
