Sustainable footwear brand Native Shoes has introduced more silhouettes that make use of its eco-friendly repurposed algae material, including its popular Jefferson Bloom model.
The versatile silhouette is available in both adult, baby, and kid's sizing, and can also be purchased in a variety of different colorways. As the slip-on sneaker-inspired shoes are made with a single material and include a shock-absorbent sole, Native Shoes presents an easy-to-clean, comfortable, and durable staple that's perfect for everyday wear. The company's Rise By Bloom technology is a future-facing program that takes toxic algae from waterways and gives it a new life by including it in its ultra-lightweight material.
Native Shoes is dedicated to giving 100 percent of shoes an end of life solution by 2023.
