BABER-GV vegan running shoes | TEADUST Appleskin

Discover our new BABER-GV (Go Vegan) running shoes. The TEADUST version of BABER is made of Appleskin, which recycles Apple waste into vegan leather and contains 50% of apple. Sustainably sourced in Italy and durable, our sneakers are created for sensitive feet and demanding activities such as running, walking long distances, or standing up all day. They are made for running on trails or on the city's concrete sidewalks. If you need stability and comfort and keep your feet fresh, protected, and healthy all day, these 100% Vegan sneakers are the ones you'd want to try.

The upper of our running shoes are stitched to a VIBRAM recycled rubber sole, designed to be stylish, elegant, modern, and specifically meant to accompany you if you have sensitive feet. They will help you go through a day standing, walking, and running.

Details on our VIBRAM SOLE:

• Optimal balance of traction and durability
• Responsive on unpredictable terrain
• Engineered for stability and comfort
• Symmetrical design and self-cleaning lugs for this trail running sole, perfect for moving fast in an urban environment.
• High rolling toe for easy movement and big rubber toe area for grip.
• Pivot zone to ease 360° motion and quick lateral movements

TIPS for cleaning:

You can clean your sneakers with “The eco-friendly Cleaner” by Kaps. If you are worried about “sweating,” we assure you the lining is absorbent, but to avoid any discomfort or unwelcomed odors, you can use our “eco-friendly shoe deodorant” by Kaps. The inside sole is removable and can be cleaned separately.

All our materials are sourced and produced in Europe and certified Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 class. Our sneakers are made in Portugal, a small fair-trade company working under EU law, respecting labor rights and the environment.

The BABER-GV fitting is true to size to a little "roomy", and we advise you to take your regular size.

Good Guys Go Vegan was founded in 2011 by Marion Hanania, a Parisian shoe designer and long-time vegan. Good Guys makes vegan shoes that are 100% cruelty-free and don't give up on style. In this way, they can offer fashionistas and animal lovers a sustainable choice.

Fair trade: The shoes are fairly made in small family businesses in Portugal, Italy and Spain. Here the shoes are (mainly) made by hand. Good Guys visits these locations on average twice a year and can confirm that the conditions here are pleasant, and the employees receive a fair wage.

Eco-friendly: By experimenting with innovative, natural materials such as Apple leather and corn and recycled material, the brand wants to work towards a 100% naturally degradable shoe. Now Good Guys still works a lot with the synthetic material microfiber. The materials are Oeko-Tex certified, which indicates that they contain no harmful substances.

Vegan: All Good Guys Don't Wear Leather products have been 100% vegan since day 1. They are PETA-approved.
