The “most upscale offering ever.” Said REEF.
REEF is launching an eco-friendly sandal style. The inspiration behind the new REEF Paipo style comes from classic designs that use natural elements to create structure and artful detail.
The new men’s style Paipo is made with 100% real wood and full-grain leather that has been ethically sourced by tanneries that are gold-and silver-rated by the Leather Working Group. In addition, the sustainable sandal is made with a footbed featuring the brand’s bio-based EVA made from renewable sugar cane.
Other details include laser etching on the heel and a metal logo for a more sophisticated look. The Paipo sandal comes in two colourways, Black and Brown.
“Its 51 per cent bio content makes it carbon neutral and is considered a greenhouse gas reduced product,” said REEF
“The Paipo sandal is inspired by an iconic design, which brings the most premium, natural materials available,”. “I’ve never seen a teamwork with more passion and excitement to bring a product to life. It’s well reflected in the unique details and premium craftsmanship used in the Paipo.” said Mike Jensen, President of REEF.
“Our goal from the start was to integrate a functional wood component that would meet the highest standard of quality, durability, and finishing,” said Paul LaBarbera, Senior Director of Footwear Design at REEF.
