We use water-based materials rather than the typically used oil based synthetics. This special kind of DMF-free PU reduces energy consumption associated with the manufacturing of traditional PUs while also minimising the harmful exhaust fumes with such practices. We also use recycled materials which means less waste and less environmental impact. Our incredible shoes are made using Bloom, a protein-rich biomass which blends algae with various polymers to produce a sustainable compound. The farmed algae helps to clean the air and polluted water, while the compounds produced are used in our insoles, mid-soles and out-soles, replacing the amount of conventional fossil-fuel based plastics. The use of water-based materials, recycled materials and Bloom naturally lowers the chemical processes used in production and their harmful by-products.
