[Asia Economy Reporter Yujin Cho] Hansome, a fashion specialist company affiliated with Hyundai Department Store Group, announced on the 14th that it has launched 'Apple Skin Sneakers' from Tommy Hilfiger.

The Apple Skin Sneakers are made with vegan leather created by recycling apple peels. Vegan leather refers to leather made from alternative materials such as synthetic leather or fruit peels, without using animal leather or fur.

A Hansome official explained, "In line with the slogan of Tommy Hilfiger’s global headquarters, 'Accept everything and waste nothing,' we applied eco-friendly materials," adding, "In the case of Apple Skin Sneakers, 24% of the total material is vegan leather recycled from apple peels."

This product is unisex, available in white and navy colors, featuring a modern and basic style with the Tommy Hilfiger flag logo applied on the shoe tongue (the inner part of the shoelace area). It is easy to style with denim pants as well as skirts and slacks. The price is 238,000 KRW, and it can be purchased at Tommy Hilfiger footwear stores nationwide, including Hyundai Department Store Mokdong and Daegu branches, as well as through the H Fashion Mall.

Operating over 900 stores in 65 countries worldwide, Hansome currently operates about 220 stores in Korea since opening the first store in 2003.
