Meet Our Most Sustainable Sneaker Yet
2/24/2022
Minimal impact, maximum comfort.
We set out to create a sneaker that's kinder to our planet and offers next-level comfort. We’re proud to say, we’re doing both. Meet the Jinzo!
A women’s sneaker with a knit upper crafted from recycled plastic bottles, it features a 40% sugarcane outsole, a blend of natural rubber slip-resistant sole and is fitted with recycled cotton laces. You read that right, it’s vegan and we couldn’t be more excited. #betterinbared
Our famous footbed got an upgrade, too.
The same support you know and love, but kinder to the planet. Our new B.plantfoam™ footbed is made from 72% plant-based materials (USDA Certified Biobased). With a carbon footprint of 3.85 kg CO2e, it reduces CO2 emissions by 70% when compared to traditional petroleum-based footbeds.
So while you plant your feet in cloud-like bliss, you can rest assured our planet will love your every step.
They’re super light and breathable.
After years of requests, this lightweight kick is made for low impact movement. Whether you’re into long walks, dance sessions or sporting the ultimate street style fit, the 'Jinzo' is your one-stop-shop.
They’re flexible and comfy.
The same crazy comfort, but with a lighter footprint. Loaded with all the iconic Bared support features you know and love, the brand-new knit upper (made from 100% recycled plastic bottles!) gives you extra flex where you need it.
They’re 100% vegan.
The 'Jinzo' was born from the urge to make a sneaker that was kinder to our planet while not compromising on quality, comfort or durability. The conscious kick embodies our desire to reshape the footwear industry by offering shoes that are good for you and the planet, too.
“We have carefully selected a variety of greener components to construct our 'Jinzo 'sneaker. We are on an exciting journey. The 'Jinzo' is a great step in the right direction and we are incredibly proud of the steps that we are taking to deliver truly sustainable products in the future."
- Founder, Anna Baird.
