Allbirds: Shoes made from wool, sustainably

reducing environmental impact has been ALLBIRD’S priority since day one.

WORDS FROM ALLBIRDS:

OUR COMMITMENT

We’re changing so the climate doesn’t.

Everyone has a carbon footprint.

But what does that even mean?

We love some footprints. Like the ones you make walking in wet sand. Or hiking up a mountainside through the mud. But carbon footprints, not so much. That said, by simply existing in this world, we all create a carbon footprint. It happens when we take a shower, charge our cell phone, and let out a yawn after a long day.

So, what’s the big deal? Well, the more carbon that’s in the atmosphere, the faster our planet warms. A warmer planet and a changing climate mean melting ice caps, rising sea levels, extreme weather events followed by droughts, wildfires...you get the gist. But hey, we’ve got good news—it’s not too late to help. We can all make little changes in our everyday routines to reduce our impact. Things like bringing reusable bags on grocery trips, biking instead of driving, and composting food scraps, to name a few.

More importantly, businesses—whose footprints are way bigger than any one individual’s—need to change, too.

Mother Nature is our muse. Building on her handiwork, we’re finding new uses for materials that exist right in front of us. Like wool from merino sheep, who have the best hair in nature.

But even great locks need a trim from time to time. With fibres that are 20% the diameter of human hair, our superfine merino wool is breathable, temperature-regulating, and moisture-wicking, all without that irritating scratchiness.
