2020 : le dé-brief
3 ans que SAOLA a vu le jour, et quel chemin parcouru…
2020 a été rythmé par le COVID-19 mais nous n’avons rien lâché, nous nous sommes adaptés et plein de bonnes choses sont finalement sorties de cette année tourmentée.
OUTSOLES MADE FROM MILK? YOU BET!
The Hevea tree is grown naturally in South America. It offers milk (harvested much like sap from a Maple tree), which can be used to form all-natural soles used in shoe production. Flexible, durable, and extra comfy, the LACTAE HEVEA® sole is now available in SAOLA Shoes.

We are always looking for innovative materials to offer the most sustainable and eco-friendly products. When we heard about banana fibers to create the upper of our shoes, we were super curious about it!

1% for Mwalua Wildlife Trust
From the beginning, in addition to creating sustainable footwear, we have been committed to supporting wildlife conservation. Currently 1% of all SAOLA sales go to Mwalua Wildlife Trust.
Going Vegan? Here's some advice from our friends.
When we started out, being a vegan shoe company was not our top priority. Ourfocus was to use eco-friendly materials and lessen our impact on the planet as much as possible. But as we've found out, adopting a vegan diet is a great path for environmentally-conscious people who want to reduce their carbon footprint.
The Truth About Leather & Its Alternatives
The fashion industry, as you know, is one of the a largest industries, and 2nd most polluting behind oil and gas. Recently, new generations of consumers are shedding light on the effects of fashion consumption, or fast fashion, and hoping to turn the negative effects of our need for the newest and greatest styles, around.
