TRASH PLANET

For Trash Planet, the clue is in the name. Tired of bland sustainable brands with empty promises, founders Jordan and Holly risked it all and moved to Portugal to bring to life a sustainable and ethical shoe brand that is on its way to creating a 100% recycled sneaker. Both insistent in knowing and understanding the process from start to finish and meeting every supplier and worker within their chain, they have created a sustainable, transparent brand that doesn't sacrifice style or durability. Sneakers use recycled cardboard, corn waste and polyester and are also 100% vegan and cruelty free.
