Etiko is an Australian designer of organic and fair trade clothing and shoes. The brand constantly sets the bar for upholding and campaigning the human rights of people working in traditionally exploitative industry supply chains. The brand is also 100% vegan, creating familiar shoes—like these black slip on style ones—in a radically different way. The soles of this fantastic pair are made of natural latex rubber tapped fresh from a rubber tree, the organic canvas is hand stitched by Certified Fairtrade employees, the brand uses zero animal glues, non-toxic dyes, and the shoes even come in a box made of post consumer waste. I’ll take one, thank you.

Find the shoes in UK sizes 3-13.

“I founded ESSĒN in 2016 as a response to a fashion cycle that overproduces more than it carefully crafts, chases trends more than it determines classics, and wastes more than it sustains,” says founder Marre Muijs. The shoes and accessories brand, which limits its production runs and uses low-waste cutting techniques, eschews the fashion calendar in favour of a single, permanent collection.
