Inspired by Slow-Design

I truly believe in the principles of slow design, which among other things means to take your time in designing products by questioning ecological values but also how we can shape emotional experiences created by products. Especially art has so much more to give than a simple functionality. Sunken Fins are therefore not only 100% handmade, but also designed to incorporate the spirit of the local surfing community in mind.
