Material guide

  • 01_LEATHER

    All our leathers are tanned without the use of heavy metals and harsh chemicals. Whether it’s nappa, suede or nubuck, we use nothing but vegetable and synthetic dyeing extracts that are environmentally friendly. This results in completely biodegradable leathers in vibrant colorways.

  • 02_VEGEA®

    This is not leather, but you wouldn’t guess from its look or comfort. VEGEA® is a leather alternative made from renewable raw materials; like plant-based oils and natural fibers from the agro-industry. A superb green alternative to fossil fuel based materials.

  • 04_WATER ZERO®

    This recycled Ripstop Nylon is dyed with the innovative WATER ZERO® technique. It not only reduces its water use by more than 66% in the dyeing process, it also reduces its overall energy impact by more than 88%.

  • 05_ECONYL®

    ECONYL® is an innovative nylon yarn, made entirely from recovered fishing nets and other nylon waste. The beauty of the ECONYL® recycling process is that it can be repeated infinitely without ever losing its quality, forming a closed-loop cycle of regenerated – and regenerable – nylon products.

    ECONYL®

    ECONYL® is an innovative nylon yarn, made entirely from recovered fishing nets and other nylon waste. The beauty of the ECONYL® recycling process is that it can be repeated infinitely without ever losing its quality, forming a closed-loop cycle of regenerated – and regenerable – nylon products.

    TENCEL™

    A consciously produced yarn made from eucalyptus and beech wood fibres from sustainably managed Europese FSC en PEFC forests. The wood fibers are pulped and regenerated into cellulose yarn. This breathable material is made in a closed loop process with a low environmental impact.

    VEGEA®

    This is not leather, but you wouldn’t guess from its look or comfort. VEGEA® is a leather alternative made from renewable raw materials; like plant-based oils and natural fibers from the agro-industry. A superb green alternative to fossil fuel based materials.

    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.
