03 Who We Are

A small, focused footwear
company. Built to ship.

AIRfeet Recovery is a licensed collegiate footwear brand from Tyrol Worldwide LLC — a privately held Indianapolis footwear company sourcing from a specialized EVA manufacturer in Taiwan.

We make one thing well: officially licensed recovery slides and thongs for college fans, alumni, athletic departments, and institutional group buyers. One price, one platform, one construction — the only variable is your school.

We're not a marketplace, not a print-on-demand shop, and not a footwear division of a larger operator. Licensing and quality are the entire job.

Two silhouettes.
One platform.

Every school gets the same construction, the same sizing depth, the same $79.99 retail price. Colorway and mark are the school's variables. Simplicity is the product.

Proprietary
EVA cushioning.

The reason the shoe works — and the reason a fan buys the second pair.
// The construction, feature by feature
01

Proprietary EVA formulation

Molded single-density EVA midsole with our engineered cushioning profile. Sourced through a specialized Taiwanese footwear manufacturer to our spec.

02

Contoured footbed geometry

Anatomically shaped arch and heel cradle designed with biomechanics input. Not flat — the geometry is the feature.

03

Water-resistant · antimicrobial

Closed-cell EVA construction — no water absorption. Antimicrobial-treated for locker room, dorm bathroom, and post-workout use.

04

Durable outsole tread

Molded tread pattern for wet-floor traction. Made to survive tailgates, dorms, and daily wear — not a single-season slide.

Recovery footwear is a category. Licensed collegiate footwear is a category. AIRfeet Recovery is the only brand that meaningfully occupies both.

// The gap

OOFOS doesn't license.

Recovery-tech brands sell direct — no team versions exist. A Notre Dame fan choosing OOFOS gets a great slide with zero school pride.

// The gap

Team slides don't recover.

The licensed slides on team-shop shelves today are $30 rubber flip-flops. They rep the school; they hurt to wear after two hours.

// The opportunity

Fans want both.

Every alumnus owns a $40 hoodie and $120 recovery slides — but they're different brands. We're the first product where those buyers can buy once.

How it works
in practice.

// Independent · FBS · 2026 launch
