X-Syndrome is energy-generating footwear that converts the kinetic energy of walking into electricity, reclaiming power otherwise lost in daily life. Embedded piezoelectric elements transform each step into energy, enabling users to charge small devices while promoting self-sufficiency and sustainability.

Developed under the “Y3K” concept language, X-Syndrome envisions the aesthetics of future energy. Metallic textures and energy wave-like forms visualize the flow of power, while 3D printing with TPU filament minimizes material waste and ensures lightweight, comfortable wear for everyday use.
