BMW GINA’s material is lightweight, flexible, and ergonomic. Combined with PUMA’s operable DISC technology, it creates X-Cat DISC shoes with a system where the disc pulls internal wires to close and open the shoe, no more shoe laces. The stretchable GINA material would wrap around your foot like a second skin. X-Cat DISC shoes are about lightweight, adaptability, and performance, it is infused with the spirit of GINA where your foot becomes the chassis of the shoe itself.
