Other brands have offered similar sneakers that they say are circular, but this one registers a little more true to me. These shoes are made with natural, undyed, organic cotton uppers + recycled, natural, tree rubber soles (+ no glue). Thesus says the wearer can (after clipping the grommets + lace ends) tear the uppers off + plant them in their garden to compost. The soles can be returned to Thesus, who will turn them into the next pair!
Thesus was formerly Alice + Wittles, maker of natural rubber, rain boots. Their footwear (which currently includes waterproof boots made from recycled materials) are made in Portugal by people making living wages. These sneakers aren't available just yet, but I'm looking forward to seeing them (+ this model) come into being!
