With Mother Nature as their muse, Allbirds is a company that specializes in unisex footwear made from Merino wool and recycled materials.
In New Zealand, sheep outnumber humans by six to one. As a native of New Zealand, Allbirds co-founder Tim Brown, who is described as inherently curious, desired to utilize merino wool in the footwear industry and by partnering with engineer and renewable expert Joey Zwillinger, created a wool fabric that is made specifically for shoes.
Known for qualities such as it being breathable, temperature-regulating, moisture-wicking, and being itch-free, Allbirds claims that by that using merino wool, their process uses up to about 60% less energy than other materials used in synthetic shoes.
Alongside merino wool, Allbirds has found numerous ways to master comfort with style and sustainability. Using laces made with recycled plastic bottles, castor bean oil for soles, and recycled cardboard for packaging, footwear made by Allbirds is simple, professional in appearance, and versatile for any occasion.
Allbirds offers various unisex styles such as wool runners, wool loungers, tree runners, tree skippers, and more.
