01 Materials
Wool, tree fibre, and sugarcane. Allbirds has built its shoes around natural materials since the start, and we've kept choosing them — for how they feel, how they wear, and how they're grown rather than made.
02 MANUFACTURING
The truth is, making things takes energy. There's no version of this that doesn't. What we can control is who we work with — a small number of long-standing factory partners — and paying attention to how our shoes are made, not just what they're made from.
03 Transportation
Our products move from factory to distribution centre, then from distribution centre to customers across the globe. And sometimes they're returned or exchanged. Every leg of a product's journey makes an impact.
04 PRODUCT USE
No matter how lightly you tread, your Allbirds are bound to need a rinse every now and again. Our products are machine washable, and we strongly encourage you to wash on cold and air dry to minimize your carbon footprint and maximize your product’s lifetime.
Growing Sustainably Together
As our company grows, we want to do so in a way that honors our partners and their own endeavors to build a better planet.
