Everything about what is behind our eco-friendly shoes.
You've probably heard about sustainable shoes many times, but what does that mean? What properties does a shoe have to have in order to be sustainable? In this post, you'll learn more about our Green Spirit line, which offers eco-friendly shoes that not only fit your style but also your ethics.
A sustainable shoe is a shoe made with environmentally friendly materials and processes. As a responsible brand, we created our Green Spirit line to offer our environmentally conscious customers more shopping options.
What is Green Spirit?
Green Spirit is the bugatti shoe line developed for our consumers who are not only fashionable but also want to shop responsibly. Our line is based on four categories that help fulfill our mission. This is how bugatti is changing.
Vegan uppers
We know that veganism is not a trend, but a way of life, which is why we have used high-quality vegan materials without animal ingredients that meet our high standards. With our vegan women's boots you can move around and leave a friendly footprint on the planet.
Recycled materials
We are currently confronted with several environmental problems that result in a critical global phenomenon. Recycling allows us to mitigate the impact of the tons of waste that many industries produce. That's why bugatti is going green: we use recycled materials in the production of lining, zips, soles, yarn/sewing thread, rubber bands and shoeboxes for our items from this series.
Chrome free leather
We at bugatti are committed to the Green Spirit: Toxic waste water is produced during the manufacture of shoes using the chrome tanning process, which heavily pollutes the environment. The products used in these processes are not durable and usually have an unpleasant chemical odor. For these reasons, bugatti has made it its task to develop chrome-free tanned leather shoes in order to reduce the environmental impact and the risk to human health.
Organic Materials
The habit of "using and throwing away" is not good for the earth, which is why we at bugatti rely on the use of organic materials for our Green Spirit line. These have several benefits, both for the environment and for humans, as they contribute to the preservation of the environment. The organic materials are of high quality, so we don't have to buy new shoes every season because the materials are durable and free from harmful chemicals. If you are looking for ecological and vegan sneakers , take a look at our model Malte. This sneaker is made of merino wool, a natural, ecological and renewable raw material.
We have developed corresponding logos so that you can recognize our Green Spirit shoes more easily. Scan the QR code of your bugatti shoe to get the relevant information.
Green Spirit tips
Our team wants to be part of the change and we know you want to get involved too. Here are a few simple ideas to make your everyday life greener:
- Always carry a water bottle with you so you can refill it instead of constantly buying plastic bottles. By spending less on water, your wallet will thank you and you will protect the environment.
- Buy sustainable products, they are of better quality and you don't have to change your shoes every season.
- Join Facebook groups where you can buy used things. There you can find products in good condition at a lower price.
- Say goodbye to straws! Nowadays there are many possibilities to buy these in a reusable form (made of metal for example). They are more beautiful and more sustainable than those made of plastic.
- The 5-minute shower: try setting a timer when you shower so that you are more conscious of your water consumption. If you're one of those people who enjoys listening to music and singing in the shower, a two-song playlist is ideal for making a daily contribution to Mother Earth.
