Clothes are a life attitude, a statement, a definition of who we are and how (and how much) we want to reveal to the world about ourselves. These statement do not sound so new. But, what if we were missing a very important part of the picture. What if fashion had sound, a smell... What if clothes and accessories were an injection of life. Well, Barcelona\u2019s shoe maker Arrels firmly believes this is actually the case. The Brand is less than one year old and their innovative concept is stealing hearts and minds across the globe. Arrels\u2019 shoes are an antidote against pessimism and\u00a0 stereotypes. Their shoes are a call to the unexpected; the elixir to life.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-11557 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-11557\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 250px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-9.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-9.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-9.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5133\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11557\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-9.jpg-nggid045133-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                                    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-14.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-14.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-14.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5138\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11557\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-14.jpg-nggid045138-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n\r\n\r\n\u201cI want my clothes and style not only to look nice, but also to sound nice\u201d, cyborg artist Neil Harbisson points out.

They wanted to pay homage to the rural life as opposed to the increasingly dehumanized cities of today.\r\n\r\nAccording to Llaudet,\u00a0 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.arrelsbarcelona.com\" target=\"_blank\">Arrels shoes are made of Barcelona<\/a>. Here the preposition \u201cof\u201d (and not \u201cin\u201d) plays a crucial role. Arrels means \u201croots\u201d in Catalan. And loyalty to one\u2019s roots is the starting point of Arrels\u2019 journey.\r\n\r\nThe shoes have been crafted with all the inspiration they can get from Barcelona and the Mediterranean lifestyle.\r\n\r\n\"The Mediterranean gives us all the inspiration that we have; and also Barcelona because we just love living in this city. The music also inspires us because we don't understand life without it\", Llaudet tells us.\r\n\r\nArrels' shoes want to share this positive life attitude with the use of bold colors and the right dose of sense of humor.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-11559 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-11559\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 250px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 333px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-2.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-2.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-2.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5126\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11559\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"333\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-2.jpg-nggid045126-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                                    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-3.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-3.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-3.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5127\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11559\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-3.jpg-nggid045127-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n\r\n\r\nCo-creation is at the core of Arrels. So the design process is strictly linked to music, illustration, photography and many other disciplines.\r\n\r\n\u201cI\u2019m a very curious person. And I always liked graphic design, art, music and perfumes. That\u2019s why I wanted to have a bit of all these things that inspire me in the brand\u201d, explains Arrels co-founder, Javier Llaudet.\r\n\r\nIn other words, these are shoes for the \u201crural urbanites\u201d. The designs of Barcelona based artists such illustrators <a href=\"http:\/\/laracostafreda.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Lara Costafreda<\/a> and <a href=\"http:\/\/catalinaestrada.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Catalina Estrada<\/a>; grafitti artist <a href=\"http:\/\/yoshisislay.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Yoshi Sislay<\/a>; and Graphic Design studio <a href=\"http:\/\/heystudio.es\/\" target=\"_blank\">Hey<\/a> are well proof of that. They all contributed with bold approaches to the conventional shoe by bringing together the Mediterranean essence: \u201cthe urban spirit and the rural soul\u201d.\r\n\r\n<style type='text\/css'>\n    #ngg-gallery-11560 .ngg-pro-masonry-item {\n        margin-bottom: 4px;\n    }\n<\/style>\n<div class=\"ngg-pro-masonry\" id=\"ngg-gallery-11560\">\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-gutter' style='width: 4px'><\/div>\n    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-sizer' style='width: 250px'><\/div>\n                <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-18.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-18.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-18.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5142\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11560\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-18.jpg-nggid045142-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                                    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-20.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-20.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-20.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5144\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11560\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-20.jpg-nggid045144-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                                    <div class='ngg-pro-masonry-item' style='height: 250px; max-width: 250px;'>\n                <a href=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-22.jpg\"\n                   title=\"\"\n                   data-src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/Arrels-Barcelona-22.jpg\"\n                   data-thumbnail=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/thumbs\/thumbs_Arrels-Barcelona-22.jpg\"\n                   data-image-id=\"5146\"\n                   data-title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                   data-description=\"\"\n                   class=\"ngg-fancybox\" rel=\"11560\">\n                    <img title=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         alt=\"Arrels Barcelona\"\n                         width=\"250\"\n                         height=\"250\"\n                         src=\"http:\/\/earthtoiris.com\/wp-content\/gallery\/arrels-bcn\/dynamic\/Arrels-Barcelona-22.jpg-nggid045146-ngg0dyn-250x0-00f0w010c010r110f110r010t010.jpg\"\/>\n                <\/a>\n            <\/div>\n                            <\/div>\n\r\n\r\nThe basis of Arrels\u2019 creative process is the very good relationship that they have with the artists they work with.
