How many years have you been in business? How have the trends changed?

Have the buying habits of your customers changed? In what way?
Yes, we have noticed that even more our customers require the blend of function, fashion and self-expression.

In what manner is your brand responsible, sustainable, and ethical? What is responsible consumerism for you?
Our brand believes in environmentally aware production methods and the limitation of waste produce. We aim to continue to create shoes for children using the friendliest materials our planet сan provide.

Besides that, we have been slowing shifting our lines to full sustainable. Featuring organic cotton canvas and a sole made of recycled rubber leftovers, we are making sure that small feet can
enjoy growing up for generations to come!

What has been the inspiration for the current collection (AW20)?
Our current collection is inspired by the old days, our brand’s core.
