Cork: a footwear material that grows on trees!
We've pioneered a way to turn used cork into a sustainable replacement for fossil fuel foams used in footwear, and it's better in every way.
A material too good to waste.
Cork comes from the bark of cork oak trees, harvested by hand without cutting the tree down. We collect and recycle this versatile, high-quality material to create ReCORKTM Recycled Cork. The result is footwear components that are naturally sustainable from origin to end-point.
Why else do we use cork?
Beyond being incredibly eco-friendly, cork has many other qualities that make it perfect for use in footwear.
CUSHIONING
Natural elasticity makes for excellent shock absorption.
NATURALLY DRY
Moisture-wicking and odor-reducing.
CUSTOMIZABLE
Naturally molds to your unique feet within days of wear.
SUPPORTIVE
Firm enough to provide long-lasting support.
22 to 60
