What does this brand sell?
Be Flamboyant was born after its founders Tati and Jorge realised the irreversibility of the marks that some brands and consumers leave on this planet. With this in mind, Be Flamboyant was established in Spain in 2019. They produce sneakers with timeless, unisex designs that are made of different materials such as corn, organic cotton, and recycled plastic and rubber. For them, transparency is key, which is why they have partnered with BCOME to shine light on their production chain.
“To change the present to shape a better future by creating vegan shoes and eco-friendly fashion while empowering a new way of consumption responsible with the environment, the animals, and the people.”
