Our bamboo-based Ballet Flat is more than just a shoe debut. It’s the next step in solving climate change through material innovation.
Welcome to our material library and showroom inside the historic Lloyd Wright Studio located in the heart of the Los Angeles Design District, West Hollywood, California.
We’re taking on climate change by creating the plant-based materials of the future. Today, we supply materials to all industries: fashion, furniture, airplanes and even cars—right back where it all began.

Leather tanning destroys land and waterways plus pollutes the air with toxic chemicals, including some known carcinogens.*
Astonishing as it sounds, livestock production causes as much greenhouse gas emissions as planes, trains, and cars combined.+
On the bright side, we’re using nature and science to create materials from plants, not petroleum with unmatched performance.
