SUSTAINABILITY CREDENTIALS

Rather than focus on the speed at which the shoes break down, PURIFIED looks further and explores their impact on soil health.

Shoes were tested under ISO 20020:2015 to measure their level of toxicity. Shoes were exposed to soil conditions for 90 days, the soil was then inspected for toxic chemicals and found to have exceptionally low levels.

Tomato and Barley Plants were then introduced to this soil to assess how they grew (OECD 208 - plant response). When planted in this soil, it was discovered that under certain conditions the plants grew better than compared to regular compost.

PURIFIED will publish these results upon completion of the tests. A comparison test; looking into how an industry standard trainer might perform, is currently underway.

DIRT CHARITY

Until the end of the year, 5% of every sale will be donated to Dirt Charity. This charity seeks to turn fashion into a climate solution by providing a path to grow fashion crops in a way that regenerates soil, instead of spoiling it. You can read more about them here.

The ULTIMATE COMFORT

THE WALDEN JOURNEY

The Walden was created after four years of material exploration. From the Bio-tech labs of North America, to the wild jungles of the Phillipines. Only the best entirely natural materials were sourced.

Mirum

MIRUM® is a super high-performance, plastic-free alternative to traditional leather. This premium material is made from responsibly sourced natural rubber, plant-based oils, natural pigments, and minerals.

PLIANT SOLE

PLIANT™, is the world’s first scalable, 100% biobased outsoles, crafted from naturally cured, USDA-certified rubber. Unlike most "rubber" materials that rely on synthetic compounds or petrochemicals, these outsoles use natural rubber sourced from responsibly managed trees.
