Stylish Waste-Reducing Footwear

Minuit sur Terre Makes Vegan Shoes With Ecological Materials

— July 31, 2021 — Eco
Minuit sur Terre is a French brand that creates eco-friendly vegan footwear and accessories for men and women using cruelty-free and sustainable materials, including materials made from grapes and vegetable oils. By working with these materials as alternatives to leather, the brand helps to reduce by-products from the food industry like apple waste, recycled cereals, synthetic fibers and also clean up the environment by giving new life to bottles collected from the Mediterranean Sea. These materials are joined to soles products with 70% recycled rubber, so that consumers don't have to compromise style for sustainability.

There are styles for everyone, and all occasions, as seen with the Nepita Terre Cuite heeled sandals and the popular Virevolte sneakers.
