Released on the occasion of the 25 years of the Portuguese radio show The Man Who Bit the Dog, this special edition, limited to 200 pairs of sneakers and serialised with a certificate signed by the humourist, will allow each buyer to wear on their feet an original Nuno Markl's illustration. For each pair sold, 5 euros will be delivered to the Ajuda no Berço association, which exists since 1998 to support unprotected babies and children.

Additionally, "each pair reuses 8 bottles of marine litter, 100% made in Portugal and with sustainable materials, such as GOTS-certified organic cotton and Fair Trade certified in planting and processing, natural rubber from the rubber tree, and plastic from the ocean, collected by schools, several NGOs and volunteers in the north and centre of Portugal", stated Zouri.
