Our goal is to create a positive future for people and the planet. It’s why we’ve set ambitious science-based targets to reduce our environmental impact and use bio-based materials.
We're bringing functional design, innovation, and purposeful materials together—so we can all wander a little lighter.

BLOOM
The Problem
Excessive amounts of carbon monoxide (CO2), a warming climate, and water pollution are causing harmful algae blooms to grow at extraordinary speeds. The overgrown algae consumes oxygen and blocks sunlight, which can have harmful effects on marine life and even people.

Bloom
Our Solution
Bloom, a natural material made from overgrown algae taken from freshwater and EVA.
Algae is a naturally regenerative resource that can double its size in as little as 24 hours without arable land or fertilizer. It's also found in almost any ecosystem (deserts, polar ice sheets—and even animal fur!)—making it one of the earth’s most renewable resources.
Not only that, but Bloom is restorative. Making just one pair of Bloom shoes puts 70L (that’s like 118 large coffees) of filtered water and 73m3 of clean air back into the environment.

RECYCLE, REMIX, REDISCOVER
The Native Shoes Remix™ Project
An initiative that gives new life to your well-loved Native Shoes. Every recycled pair is re-purposed and used in community projects across North America.
To date, we’ve recycled and remixed 40,000+ pairs of shoes and built 6 playgrounds.
