Durable and Breathable Upper: Made with TENCEL™ lyocell, a material derived from renewable wood sources, ensuring the highest durability and breathability function. Recycled Polyester Lining: Contributes to a reduced environmental footprint and reduced plastic pollution. Activ-Step® Bio-Based Footbed: The Activ-Step® bio-based footbed in this style, is partially crafted with BLOOM® algae. During collection of the algae from water habitats, this technology cleans 16m³ of CO2 from the atmosphere and cleans & restores 15 litres of water to the environment, per shoe. Algae is the fastest growing plant on Earth – it can double its size in as little as 24 hours – making it one of Earth’s most renewable resources. Comfort isn’t sacrificed, with the footbed having naturally high energy return and rebound properties. Performance Sole: Contains a BLOOM® foam midsole, an algae-derived, bio-based alternative to standard midsole materials, reducing our reliance on fossil fuel-based plastics. This is coupled with a rubber outsole, infused with the world’s first regenerative outsole material, Solum Bio-Tread™. BLOOM® foam contains algae, which is harvested to help clean polluted waterways where the algae grow excessively, restoring degraded water habitats and therefore improving biodiversity and ecosystem health. It makes for a cushioned midsole which absorbs impact for all-day comfort, whether you're navigating hard floors or rough outdoor terrain, reducing fatigue to the wearer. Solum’s Bio-Tread™ materials are made from the same biological nutrients that give trees and plants their strength and resiliency. As you move around, Solum’s Bio-Tread™ slowly releases positive nutrients into the ecosystem, promoting healthy soils beneath your feet and beginning the cycle again. Here, we balance reducing our environmental impact whilst maintaining our industry’s durability needs. A truly pioneering advancement in the world of footwear outsoles. Advanced Protection: A fibreglass protective toecap ensures safety without added weight and the exclusively crafted para-aramid anti-perforation protective midsole developed by Activ-Step® Footwear Components provides essential on-the-job safety, whilst minimising weight. ESD Certified: This trainer meets electrostatic discharge (ESD) safety standards.
