Call It Spring recently launched a collection of sustainable shoe designs that feature styles that are made with recycled plastic bottles, water-based glue and algae-based Bloom foam insoles. With these new styles, Call It Spring spells out the impact of its newest collection—it's made from over 295,000 recycled plastic bottles, saved 58 tons of CO2 emissions and cleaned over a million of liters of water in rivers and lakes.
The sustainable styles include footwear designs for men and women, as well as accessories made with recycled and renewable materials. Some of the standout styles include the cozy, cognac-colored Erasa boots, the strappy Daleena heels and the Plateau mid-calf boots, all of which are vegan—meaning that they are all free from animal skins, feathers, furs, hairs, wool fibers, shells, silk and any other animal-based processes.
