Daisy - old school cool with sustainable values

The Daisy is our own version of a modern retro trainer, combining several elements of popular classics. We were particularly inspired by the unbeatable style that dominated the tennis courts and skate parks of our youth, which is why we have incorporated these nostalgic memories into the uncompromisingly sustainable design.

Ever since the model was released in 2022, the Daisy family has grown steadily. We have developed new colorways and different material combinations, so that today there is a wide selection of styles made from either PETA-approved vegan textiles or chrome-free tanned leather.

And of course we also had to develop a Soil version of the Daisy. Made from just 3 ingredients, natural rubber, viscose fibers and mushrooms, our new leather alternative is not only vegan, but also organic and most importantly biodegradable. With a texture that is just like traditional leather, it perfectly rounds off the classic design of the shoe and shows that bio-based materials and sneakers simply go well together.

But even though we've had a lot of fun trying out new designs, the essence of the Daisy that makes it such a great and versatile sneaker has remained unchanged: nostalgia-inducing 80s styling with premium materials and unbeatable quality thanks to our sustainable production in Portugal!

Here, every pair is carefully made by hand by shoemakers with decades of experience. Their skill and attention to detail ensure that the Daisy not only stands for a timelessly cool look, but also for durability, quality and comfort.
