Sustainability has the highest priority

Feel free, feel ZAQQ.
Leather is particularly durable
Leather is sustainable because it is a natural byproduct of the meat industry. Instead of treating animal hides as waste, they are converted into leather, which represents an effective use of resources.
Leather products are also known for their durability. A well-maintained leather shoe can last for decades.
At the end of its lifespan, leather is biodegradable, meaning it does not contribute to the growing landfill, unlike synthetic materials.
Cotton is one of the most sustainable materials
Cotton is a renewable resource, which means it represents a much lower environmental impact compared to synthetic fibers that are based on petroleum. Furthermore, cotton is biodegradable, making it an environmentally friendly choice.
Our hand-processed barefoot shoes made of cotton are durable and offer you excellent wearing comfort with excellent breathability.
Merino wool with excellent properties
Merino wool is naturally sustainable because it is fully biodegradable and renewable. The sheep are regularly sheared, which does not harm them or the environment.
Furthermore, Merino wool is incredibly durable. It retains its shape and function even after many years of use, making it an excellent choice for our barefoot shoes. With its thermoregulating and odor-inhibiting properties, this natural material offers excellent wearing comfort.
From waste to vegan recycled fabric
Our vegan recycled fabric is made from recycled materials such as plastic bottles and other waste products that would otherwise end up in landfills. Through sophisticated recycling processes, these materials are processed into high-quality, durable fabrics.
This innovative approach transforms waste into valuable resources, giving materials that would otherwise be lost a second life. Thus, each pair of barefoot shoes made from this fabric actively contributes to climate protection.
