PANGAIA is a materials science company on a mission to save our environment. A global collective of one heart and many hands — scientists, technologists, designers — the company is known for creating essential products from innovative tech and bio-engineered materials.
The PANGAIA Collection takes sustainable fashion to another level. The range uses bio-based, recycled fibers and materials made from recycled plastic bottles. It combines natural botanical dyes made from natural sources such as plants, with innovative antibacterial peppermint to stay fresh for longer. It also uses NFC technology for complete supply chain transparency.
Adding to their already growing collection, PANGAIA recently released its grape leather sneaker.. Aside from being responsibly made in Italy, the sneaker is ultra-comfortable, lightweight, breathable and made to last. The zero-waste sneaker is made from grape leather, repurposed from the Italian wine industry’s waste, and a recycled rubber sole, that’s created from industrial waste. The sneakers are also quoted with PANGAIA’s classic text print aesthetic.
The men’s and women’s sneakers are available in black and white for $245 on thepangaia.com.
