Speaking on the launch of the Flatheads Aurea, Utkarsh Biradar, CEO, Flatheads, said, “When we started Flatheads, our vision was to offer customers the ultimate in comfort, reflecting their individuality and sense of everyday style. We differentiated ourselves in the market by championing all-day wear sneakers that were extremely lightweight and breathable. Moving into natural fibres was the logical next step for us to sustain our vision, while still maintaining the premium quality of our products. Despite the crowded footwear market in India, no other brand is using natural fibres like bamboo in sneakers. We decided it was time to change that and use India’s superior quality bamboo to its full potential.”
