SANDALS
44.7South is partnering with EssBs to develop a revolutionary approach to sustainable footwear, combining advanced natural fibre technologies with environmentally responsible materials to create high-performance, recyclable sandals. By integrating fine Merino wool, Hemp, and TENCEL™ Luxe fibres into the upper construction, EssBs footwear delivers exceptional comfort, durability, breathability, and sustainability.
Every product manufactured has an environmental footprint, and the collaboration between 44.7South and EssBs is focused on reducing that impact through innovative material solutions. The carefully engineered upper straps utilise premium natural fibres selected for their unique performance benefits. Merino wool provides softness, breathability, and natural odour resistance, Hemp contributes exceptional strength and durability, while TENCEL™ Luxe fibres deliver a luxurious feel and outstanding environmental credentials through their closed-loop production process.
The commitment to sustainability extends throughout the entire sandal. EssBs footwear incorporates Bio EVA derived from renewable sugarcane resources alongside recycled tyre materials within the tread, creating a product designed with circularity in mind. By combining renewable, recycled, and recyclable materials, 44.7South and EssBs are helping shape the future of sustainable footwear, delivering products that offer comfort, performance, and environmental responsibility without compromise.
