The industry average sneaker footprint is 12.5 kg C02e. Our sneakers have smaller footprints, but not small enough. We're commited to becoming carbon neutral from birth. That's why we give detailed material descriptions and meticulously measure our environmental impact (via accredited third-party environmental agencies). Until our emissions are zero we offset all remaining footprint with the UN program Climate Neutral Now.
Minimising Plastic in Uppers
Leather offers many natural properties perfect for sneakers - it is naturally breathable, shapes and stretches to your feet, highly durable, resistant to dirt and can be treated to be weatherproof. Gold certification from LWG means our supplier has been audited across a number of factors including tannery processes, renewable energy levels and water usage and waste.

TENCEL™ Lyocell fibers are produced by Lenzing AG in a closed loop production process. The main wood used for fiber production is eucalyptus and acacia, aspen, birch, maple and southern pine are also used.

Sugarcane is a grass (a renewable biological fiber). Sugarcane reproduces naturally in cycles of less than a year, making it inherently a sustainable fiber. The sugarcane that Roscomar uses comes from Brazil. Our Sugarcane is watered by rainfall which thereby limits manual irrigation and uses minimal fertilization. The sugarcane is harvested and processed into granules that can be used like other petroleum based EVA materials.

The most sustainable option is always not to buy anything new at all. Therefore we ask you to try to extend the life of your sneakers for as long as possible. The longer you have and wear them, the smaller their footprint.
We give product care tips for both Court and Rv3 sneakers to help extend their life.
