One of the standout features of this shoe is its recycled cotton canvas construction. The upper, lining, and sock liner are typically made with about 50% recycled cotton, which helps reduce textile waste and requires less water and energy compared with conventional cotton production. 

This eco-friendly approach is part of the brand’s Earthwise collection, focusing on reducing environmental impact without sacrificing style.

Comfort is another key aspect of the Alpargata design. The shoe includes a custom comfort insole containing roughly 50% eco-content, including recycled polyurethane foam, recycled rubber, and bio-based oils. 

This construction helps provide cushioning while maintaining a lighter environmental footprint. The flexible outsole is bonded directly to the upper through Direct Injected TPR construction, creating a seamless and durable fit suitable for daily wear.
