Introduction
We love what we do here at Dune London and with more than 25 years of designing footwear and accessories we know a thing or two about what goes into making a quality product. We also love the world we live in, which is why we are working hard to improve our responsibility to both, creating products and initiatives that will foster positive change.
For Spring/Summer 2020, we are introducing the
ECO trainer: a sustainable shoe with style.
Eco Trainer
So, what makes a shoe sustainable? We're glad you asked. Our
ECO trainer is made from a mix of recycled and responsibly sourced materials, from the lining (64% recycled cotton and polyester) to the laces (75% recycled cotton and 25% recyclable polyester fibre). The leather used in the trainer has been made using a chrome and metal-free process in a tannery that is certified gold by the Leather Working Group.
Introducing these sustainable materials is important, yes, but we also want to fulfil the design-led approach you've come to know and love from our products. Thanks to a clean, minimal aesthetic, the
ECO trainer is that most versatile of shoe; it easily pairs with denim and a leather jacket at the weekend and works a charm with a more considered tailored look as modelled by Gillian Anderson in our Spring/Summer 2020 campaign (above). In essence, the
ECO trainer is one you'll look good, feel good and do good wearing.
That's Not All
We recognise that there is much to be done, but the
ECO trainer is just one of the few initiatives we have introduced to improve our duty of care to the environment. From innovative new shoe boxers to repurposing our unwanted or unsold products, click the link below to learn more about our corporate responsibility practices.
