The Amazonas Sandals Lifestyle

The environmentally aware team at Amazonas Sandals consider their product to be more lifestyle than merchandise and their ‘lifestyle sandal’ pays tribute to the surrounding environment.   Amazonas Sandals represent the future for a globally-aware eco-consumer and are the Brazilian pioneer brand in eco-friendly shoes. Their sandals are made of recycled or biodegradable rubber with the company reusing raw material such as PET bottles and fabrics. The fashion inspiration comes from the Amazon rainforest with Amazonas shapes, colours and prints visibly connected to nature and to the Brazilian atmosphere.

Amazonas sandals reflect their customers’ taste through colour and style, while realising the importance of taking care of the environment, through recycling where nothing is thrown away. The New Bio sandals are made from 100% recycled rubber and fabric waste, and once discarded start decomposing back into the earth, after five years.

Amazonas Group source raw materials from the Amazon’s native rubber trees and also believe in supporting the local communities by keeping the people of the local ‘River Community’ in the Amazon rainforest at the heart of the business. They are very aware of the current problems derived from the excessive use of water, as well as the distressing future the world may face with the lack of it. Amazonas Group believe in the importance of taking care of the environment to grant the well- being of future generations in a world where everything seems to be disposable. 

The Amazonas Sandal products are genuinely Brazilian. The mixture of colours, forms and textures of the models allow their use in several situations, be it in the urbane scenery or in the nature itself. From the images that reproduce the Marajoara ceramics, a worldwide known cultural wealth, to the use of natural stones, which confer the true Brazilian native luxury, the Amazonas Sandals surprise with their versatility. The fashion inspiration comes from the Amazon rainforest with Amazonas shapes, colours and prints visibly connected to nature and to the Brazilian atmosphere.

Amazonas are also aiming to have the first fully biodegradable jandal launched next summer; currently their jandals are 88% biodegradable and as the friendly folk at Amazonas say, “Any more, and your dog will have them for breakfast!” The perfect example is their New Bio sandals which are made from 100% recycled rubber and fabric waste, and once discarded start decomposing back into the earth, after five years!

This summer Kiwis can look forward to buying into the Amazonas lifestyle when their huge range of gladiators, sandals and jandals hit the stores here. For more information please go to www.amazonassandals.co.nz .
