  • Vegan: Officially PETA-approved.
  • Designed in Belgium, produced in Portugal.

Material: 

A sneaker made of recycled and reused materials.

  • Upper: vegan apple leather. Apple leather is made of apple waste (peels & cores). An ecological and vegan alternative to leather. 55% apple waste, 40% synthetic resin, 5% PU.
  • PU. Sole: 100% recycled rubber.
  • Lining & Laces: recycled cotton & plastic bottles.
  • Insole: removable insole made from flexible recycled carbon. Carbon is a plant-based supermaterial that has absorbing properties.

What's Sustainable: 

  • 100% recycled rubber.
  • The apple eco leather is produced in Italy using waste from the apple juice industry. Every year this industry leaves behind a significant amount of waste. This waste, consisting of apple peels and cores, is developed into a new raw material: an ecological alternative to animal leather. Moreover, apple leather is a cellulose-based material with as much as 55% of recycled apple fiber. In short, it’s a durable, bio-based and high-quality alternative to leather with a low environmental impact.

      Tosi kivat!

      Tosi kivan näköiset ja kestävän oloiset. Sovittaessani pelkäsin, että "nahka" oli liiankin napakka mutta heti ensi käyttökerralla olivat mukavat ja pehmeät. Onneksi käytin järkeäni enkä kokotaulukkoa tilauksessa; käytän yleensä kokoa 40/41 mutta taulukon mukaan olisin kokoa 39. Onneksi otin kuitenkin 40:t, ne ovat täydelliset. Ekologisuudesta ja vegaanisuudesta tietenkin suuri plussa!
