The Cariuma IBI High Sneaker is a sustainable footwear style from the brand focused on sleek style and comfort that doesn't come at the expense of the environment. The sneaker is characterized first and foremost by its high-top construction, which is achieved with a knit bamboo upper. This material is harvested right from the plant's stalks, which rapidly regenerates without impacting the soil or the tree itself.
The Cariuma IBI High Sneaker features a Green EVA sugar cane outsole that's durable and eco-friendly, while the memory foam insole features a vegan-friendly construction made with cork and organic mamona oil. Each of the high-top sneakers are finished with lining, threads, logos and laces made with recycled plastic sourced from bottles for a final touch of sustainability.
