THE PRODUCT
Gaia Piñatex Black is women's flat, backless sandals with criss-cross straps crafted with organic fabric, made from the fibres of pineapple leaf. This innovative organic fabric is made from the wasted plant leaf fibres of the pineapple harvest, being a sustainable material for the social economy and fair trade field. These beautifully handmade sandals embrace a minimalist style with their smart design and the raw touch of vegan leather-like Piñatex. They will bring you a modern and elegant look whilst taking the planet into consideration.
They have the logo printed in black on the laminated cork soles. They are made with hypoallergenic materials free from dangerous environmental toxins. The shoes are lined with breathable microfibers, able to avoid foot sweat and suffocation. They're also antibacterial and antimicrobial, which helps to prevent the development of odors. They also have three layers of soles, from top to bottom: organic cork lining, recycled gum rubber which offers padding comfort, and recycled car tires. These backless slip-on sandals are fresh, open-toe shoes.
Simple yet striking, they're versatile and trendy sandals that will perfectly match with several outfits for many occasions and are comfortable for all-day wear, both indoors and out. They are available in black and white.
