D'BRIS Shoes
After busting through yet another pair of sneakers at the skatepark, DRIS founders Joe and Magnus realized most shoes were just no match for their active lifestyles. As avid surfers who were used to seeing trash bob around their boards, knowing that they were adding to the problem by having to constantly throw away old beat-up sneakers was chewing them up. That's when they realized the problem could become its own radical answer: turn trash into shoes!
With soles made from recycled car tires, upper canvases created from recycled ocean plastic, and insoles formed from recycled cork, DRIS shoes are as sustainable as they are inspirational. That's because they're more than just a pair of durable, comfortable, slick-looking sneakers. They're also an invitation to #rethinkconsumption, to open people's eyes to the impact that mindless habits have on our planet, and to invite and inspire action and create change.
