Are Feelgrounds environmentally friendly?Updated 2 months ago
Our shoes are completely vegan and free from animal-derived materials. We deliberately avoid using PFAS and PFC. The water-repellent treatment of our Knit styles is based on natural waxes and silicons. Additionally, our products are regularly tested by independent institutes like SGS for harmful substances to ensure the highest safety standards.
Wherever possible, we use recycled or natural materials. For example, the upper material of our popular Original Mesh is made from 100% recycled PET, and even the laces are fully recycled.
Recently, we introduced Courtside Canvas and Docks, made from natural cotton and equipped with MIRUM® – an innovative, fully natural, and plastic-free leather alternative. We also launched the limited-edition Seaside Bamboo Sandals, crafted from Banbū Leather™, an advanced vegan leather made of 83 % plant-based materials, including bamboo fibers, and fully biodegradable. The sole is made from 100% bio-based, USDA-certified natural rubber, with a foot bed crafted from natural cork.
In the future, we plan to develop even more styles using natural materials – perfect for anyone seeking plastic-free alternatives. Learn more about our values on our "About Us" page.
