Most of the materials used in the manufacturing process are recycled and the shoes have been designed to be fully circular to avoid further waste ending in our oceans and landfills.

The footwear has had its impact verified by Compare Ethics. For each product, you will be able to see how much has been saved. For example, for a pair of Chelsea boots, you save 15.3 plastic bottles and 748g of waste going to landfills.

To ensure the footwear and clothing never have to see a landfill, Humans Are Vain created “Recycle Projekt”, where all you have to do is send your end-of-life items to them so they can turn them into new products.

No toxic materials are used in the manufacturing process of these sneakers
