Shoes
Everything that we buy requires natural resources, and shoes are no exception. They're often from a combination of plant, animal, and fossil-fuel-based materials, making them extremely hard to recycle. In fact, 90% of shoes end up in landfills.
Support a more equitable, sustainable fashion industry by choosing shoes from better brands, and taking care of them for as long as possible.
