Description

For those who want to buy less but choose better.

The FELT was designed as a unisex everyday sneaker, with no compromises on comfort or quality.

Designed in Belgium and handcrafted in Portugal, it combines meticulous craftsmanship with more sustainable materials, including recycled tennis and padel balls in its soles.

The result: a comfortable, sturdy, and durable sneaker designed as an alternative to the classic sneaker.

Materials & composition

100% vegan. -80% CO₂. Sourced in Europe.

The FELT combines upcycled, recycled or bio-sourced materials, all sourced in Europe, to reduce its impact without giving up comfort, resistance or style.

Exterior: AppleSkin, an alternative to animal leather made from apple residue, combined with mesh made from 80% recycled materials.
Lining: breathable cornstarch-based material.
Outsole: rubber with recycled tennis and padel balls.
Insole: cork, naturally light and comfortable.
Laces: two pairs included, one colored and one white, in recycled PET from plastic bottles.

Estimated carbon impact: around 6.4 kg CO₂e, compared with 30 kg CO₂e for a classic sneaker, an estimated reduction of almost 79%.

Commitments

At Balao, we create sneakers made to last around three commitments:

• Revaluing materials from the sporting world
• Producing under fairer and more controlled conditions
• Favoring a shorter supply chain

We take forgotten, worn-out or discarded materials and give them a new value, combining them with more responsible materials sourced in Europe.

Each pair is handcrafted in Portugal, with greater control over materials, quality and production conditions.

Delivery and returns
