Details
Originating in Denmark, Vilhelm Hertz crutches are designed with wood, leather, and original metal parts for durability, comfort, and aesthetics. Each piece is made to order, providing a perfect fit and becoming a fashionable tool for every day with a positive feeling when in use. In March 2023, Kristoffer's friend Naoyuki Miyata relaunched the brand to help convey the design and concept to Japan.
The Jury‘s Statement
The crutches are made to measure from high-quality leather, wood and metal and therefore promise a good fit. With their natural materials, the crutches are an attractive alternative to the typically technological aesthetics of conventional standard products.
