Step into effortless style and planet first innovation with the Nimbo Bamboo slip on sneaker in Black on Black, available exclusively at YY Nation. This is the world’s lowest carbon sneaker, a title earned through genuine eco engineering. Crafted from OEKO-TEX certified bamboo, the upper is naturally antibacterial and moisture resistant, keeping your feet cool and dry even on busy days. Pineapple husk leather accents add a unique, waste reducing finish that turns agricultural byproduct into something beautiful.
Inside, a super soft merino wool lining lets you wear these shoes with or without socks for total comfort right out of the box. The sole is where the magic really happens, made from algae or sugarcane instead of petroleum based materials. With an average carbon footprint of just 5.56 kg CO2e, the Nimbo Bamboo is 42 to 61 percent lower in emissions than standard sneakers. The Black on Black model with the algae sole achieves an industry leading 5.45 kg CO2e.
Performance is never sacrificed for sustainability. The durable sole features rubber inserts for reliable grip, while the slip on design makes them perfect for quick errands or long walks. Every pair is Zero Carbon certified, meaning YY Nation offsets emissions by planting indigenous forests for future generations. Raw materials are sourced within 65 miles of the factory, and all packaging is FSC certified cardboard. At YYNation.com, you can wear a shoe that feels good on your feet and does good for the earth. Slip into nature and adventure, errands included.
