South Korea's First Pilates Shoes 'CoreShoes' Released

Shoetech company KRISTIN Company (CEO Lee Min-bong) has newly launched the athleisure brand 'KRISTIN Athleisure' for those seeking both comfort and style, and has announced the release of 'CoreShoes', the first domestic Pilates shoes, as its first product.

KRISTIN Company is a shoetech enterprise enhancing the footwear manufacturing ecosystem with big data and AI technology, operating the online-based AI shoe manufacturing solution 'Sinple', and showcasing the premium shoe brand 'KRISTIN', the only luxury brand entering domestic department stores. 'KRISTIN Athleisure' is a new business area introduced by 'KRISTIN', planning to launch various specialized athletic shoes starting with athleisure shoes.

The first product of 'KRISTIN Athleisure' is the 'CoreShoes', the first domestic Pilates shoes. 'CoreShoes' are designed to maximize the advantages while avoiding the disadvantages of traditional toe socks such as slippage, peeling off, and frequent wear, completing an overwhelming sense of fit and a stylish design based on the manufacturing technology of AI shoe service Sinple.

The dual-sided non-slip made of specially formulated silicone perfectly prevents slipping of the soles, providing a powerful grip and overwhelming comfort for any feet. Due to the low thermal conductivity of the silicone material, it maintains comfort even during exercise and adds convenience with easy washing by simply rinsing with water. Available in eight diverse colors to match any workout attire.

Suitable for indoor activities such as Pilates, yoga, and home training, all products are domestically produced and certified free from harmful substances for safe use.

CEO Lee Min-bong of KRISTIN Company stated, "CoreShoes are the first athleisure product made through KRISTIN Company's shoetech technology and have seen a rapid increase in sales amidst significant customer interest, following thorough market analysis. Following the success of the premium shoes 'KRISTIN', we have successfully launched the new business 'KRISTIN Athleisure' and will continue to introduce various products tailored to customers' needs."

The new product 'CoreShoes' is available at the KRISTIN official mall.
