PROJ DINO is inspired by the skeletal structure of prehistoric creatures, especially the spine and rib cage of dinosaurs. Its hollowed-out shell design mimics fossilized remains, combining anatomical brutality with streetwear boldness. The one-piece EVA molding construction offers both visual impact and ergonomic comfort. PROJ DINO breaks away from sneaker norms—more relic than footwear, it invites attention with every step.
