Our Lower-Footprint Materials

From the soles of our shoes to the trims of our bags, our lower-impact collection is expertly crafted with materials that follow best environmental practices.

LWG Leather

As members of the Leather Working Group, we are committed to sourcing leather in a responsible and transparent manner to insure animal welfare.

Recycled Polyester (PET)

This material is made using post-consumer recycled polyester (PET) derived from plastic bottles, therefore requiring fewer resources than that of new fibers and generating fewer CO2.

Recycled Thermoplastic Rubber

A malleable blend of synthetic rubber and plastic, this material has the ability to be recycled and reused, thereby reducing carbon emissions, water pollution and the use of new raw material.

Waterborne Polyurethane

Waterborne polyurethane is manufactured with a technology that uses less chemical solvents, energy and water.

Recycled Polyurethane

This material is derived from a polyurethane skin coating on a recycled polyester sub layer. The production of this material requires fewer resources than that of new fibers and generates fewer CO2.

Recycled Polyestern Yarn (PET)

This material is made using post-consumer recycled polyester (PET) derived from plastic bottles.

Ethylene Vinyl-Acetate (EVA) With Algae

Ethylene-vinyl-acetate (EVA) foam is an insole material derived from algae biomass. By removing algae build-ups, we help create and filter freshwater & keep CO2 from entering the atmosphere.

Plant-Based Corn

A new leather alternative, this plant-based corn material helps reduce carbon emissions & non-renewable energy sources.

Did You Know?

This is not the first time we've used responsibly sourced materials in our collection. Over the past few years, we've used several materials in the construction of our lower-impact shoes and accessories, including recycled metal, recycled knit, recycled nylon, recycled neoprene and recycled jersey, all of which are certified according to the Global Recycled Standard (GRS). Among many benefits, the use of such materials required fewer resources than that of new fibers and generated fewer CO2. They also diminished the environmental impact that come with garment waste. Additionally, we developed CleanStep, an exclusive technology that helps clean & filter polluted water using thermoplastic rubber derived from algae biomass.
