Dezeen Debate features "amazing" rewilding trainer that disperses plants

The latest edition of our Dezeen Debate newsletter features a rewilding trainer that scatters plants and seeds. Subscribe to Dezeen Debate now.

Central Saint Martins graduate Kiki Grammatopoulous has designed a running shoe outsole that helps to disseminate plants and seeds. Grammatopoulous aimed to imitate epizoochory by covering the trainer's outsole in tiny hooks that grip onto dirt and plant matter as the wearer treads.

Commenters were fascinated by the trainer. One thought the design was "an amazing idea for humans to help nature". Whilst another highlighted that the project could "harm other aspects of nature and wildlife".
