Lately, I’ve wanted to share information on what is known as the method of make from brands. Small brands have led the charge in changing how all of their footwear is created. Sustainability is not a marketing tactic as the costly methods of generating responsibly made footwear is difficult to take on for a company not sitting on shelves in every store. CLAE is creating footwear with a thoughtfulness that should be celebrated.
From CLAE:
For years, we have been collaborating with ISA TanTec, one of the global leaders in new, sustainable leather innovations.
Their LITE (Low Impact to the Environment) program is specially designed to reduce and control water and energy usage, as well as to reduce the amount of chemicals they use in the process.
It provides premium quality leathers while utilizing renewable energies and recycled water such as:
Wind energy
Solar energy
Wetlands that allow a natural purification process of wastewater
Natural light
Rain lagoon to collect rainwater
Bamboo walls to ventilate the factory Season after season, we keep questioning every step of our production process to keep improving.
