Synthetic materials alternative to leather are usually oil-based. After two years of R&D, we discovered a way to instead employ “bio-polyols” - polymers extracted from cereals - as raw material
Our lining material is a masterpiece of technology: it leaves your feet dry and fresh while caressing them with a softness higher than silk’s. And it is obtained from tree pulp harvest from 100% sustainable plantations.
Look closely at any Yatay insole and you’ll notice tiny black flecks. That’s part of the recycled rubber we use. It adds resiliency, cushioning and comfort, and at the same time it helps the environment. Better for the planet, better for your feet.
Don’t you love the exterior of our sneakers? Durable, waterproof, light, soft and resistant, it took years of R&D to develop it. Its best feature, however, is hidden behind the scenes: it is made with recycled plastic bottles. A new life for the bottles, an easier life for the planet.
Our sneakers are handmade by master shoemakers in the Italian region of Marche following time honoured traditions handed down from generation to generation reinterpreted using modern technology. Wholly sourced in Italy, the quality of our materials and components is uncompromised whilst minimizing our carbon footprint.
