Metal-free tanned leather
Where others find ways to compensate for 'natural errors', we aim to protect the authentic natural features of our leather. So, with respect to our product and the environment, all our leathers are tanned without the use of heavy metals and harsh chemicals. This results in completely biodegradable leathers in vibrant colorways.
Natural Rubber
Extracted from the stem of the Rubber Tree, this natural product is made sustainably in small batches by taking only what’s necessary. No fossil fuels are used during this careful process. The harvesting has a regenerative impact on the tree and ensures a renewable source of rubber.
Thermoplastic Polyurethane
Anything with the word plastic in it might sound far from sustainable. But the beauty of TPU is that it’s extremely durable and entirely recyclable. These outsoles can take wear and tear. And can then be transformed into something new. Bringing us closer to a closed-circularity-loop.
FSC® certified cardboard
We’ve redesigned our packaging with efficiency and the environment in mind. Our shoe- and shipping-box in one is made from recycled cardboard and printed with vegetable ink. Saving space and valuable resources every step in your carbon footprint.
