Sustainable footwear brand Solana has unveiled the 'Indonesia' collection, which features an array of ethically produced designs that take inspiration from the beauty of the country's islands—known for their stunning white beaches, flowers, volcanos, and bright blue water.
The collection includes a total of seven distinct designs, which range from the delicately embroidered white and pink 'Bromo' model, to the sleek black and yellow 'Uluwatu.' In addition to the design inspiration that's used for the Indonesia collection that represents the beauty of the land, Solana seeks to honor the natural world through its sustainable crafting processes. This includes the use of recycled threads, textiles, and tassels, as well as soles that are made from recycled bottles that are taken from the ocean.
