Travel light with Nat-2

The brand nat-2, based in Munich Germany, with its 7th generation creative director Sebastian Thies has risen from one of the oldest shoe-dynasties in Europe. In 2006 the family celebrated their 153 years developing and supplying shoes, materials and accessories. Every season they launch new innovative products like the world’s first 2 in 1 shoe. The Nat-2 transformer shoes and bags are the ideal holiday products for travelling light.



Due to their job and location the designers are travelling all year long and they know very well what they like to carry with them. They combine design in Munich, innovative and finest quality materials from Italy with German engineering and craftmanship. and why bring four pairs of shoes if you have one that can transform from sneaker to slipper? Nat-2 is the original inventor of the patented 2 in 1 shoe. This design received various international design awards and has been declared to be ‘One of the 50 shoes that changed the world’ by the British Design Museum in London.

Nat-2 also collaborates with different brands in music (Wu-Tang), in the movie and gaming industry (‘Transformers’ and ‘After Earth’) and in traditional fashion (the Bavarian brand WOLPERTINGER) to create new innovative products.

Nat-2’s unique 4 in 1 sneaker has received several international design awards and is one of the most creative products today. Due to its special, patented system, the shoe can convert into 4 different heights. owning more than one pair of the same size allows to interchange upper and mix materials and colours. The shoes are super comfy and come as a full set including the shoes and 3 pairs of uppers in a nice, transparent suitcase-box.

Nat-2 has developed in collaboration with WOLPERTINGER and an Italian facotry the first rainboots made from leather. They are made from 40% fine leather and 60% rubber. With a patented method the rubber and leather get combined to be one, keeping it 100% waterproofed (just like any common rainboot). The leather comes from small parts of leftovers of famous luxury brands, which are too small to be re-used for accessories. The process is not only an all new way of recycling but also brings a unique vintage-look to the material which makes the shoe very luxurious and high-end.

In cooperation with WOLPERTINGER Nat-2 created the stylish Jumper Bag that can be doubled within a second. Ideal for shopping and travelling as well as an everyday accessory.
