At CNK Daily, we get excited when opportunities arise to combine two of our biggest passions: sneakers and sustainability. Putting our dollars into the pockets of brands that give back makes us feel good; getting a cool new pair of sneakers in turn is just the cherry on top!

Footwear brand Cariuma was founded by two Brazilian pals on a journey to combine classic skate styles with slow, sustainable fashion practices. Made from a variety of responsibly-sourced leather, recycled fabrics, and algae-derived rubber, their lifestyle sneakers are as eco-friendly as they are stylish.

Available in green and sand colorways, the Earth Day Oca Low has an organic, recycled cotton canvas upper. The cream-colored sole is made up of the brand’s new BLOOM rubber, a lightweight, renewable material made up of algae. Cotton laces come dyed in green and sand, matching the shoe’s body color. “STAND UP FOR MOTHER EARTH” is written on the outside-facing canvas panel, reminding us to defend our one and only home. This sneaker is made to order specifically for the you, meaning zero textile waste from unwanted sneakers.
