    Materials

    WE USE ONLY SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS

    From laces to soles

    Bohempia barefoot shoes are made from materials that are not only eco-friendly, but also functional, durable, and supremely comfortable. Our care doesn’t stop at choosing materials — we carefully select our partners as well. We work exclusively with companies that share our passion for sustainability, operate environmentally responsible production, and hold the appropriate certifications.

    The result?
    High-quality barefoot shoes we're proud of — bringing joy to your feet and kindness to the planet. 💚

    LACES

    : Cotton

    The laces for our barefoot shoes come from a Czech company with a tradition dating back to the 19th century. Made from strong, durable cotton, they keep their shape even with daily use thanks to traditional craftsmanship. They perfectly complement the design of our barefoot shoes, adding both practicality and style.

    CANVAS FABRIC

    : Hemp

    We make our sneaker canvas from hemp yarn sourced from Romania, from a company that honors traditional hemp farming methods and prioritizes minimal environmental impact. The yarn is then woven into fabric at a Czech weaving mill. After that, it goes to a family-run Czech company where it’s dyed using eco-friendly colors.

    SOLES

    : Natural Rubber

    Our thin, flexible soles are made from premium natural rubber sourced from Sri Lanka. This material highlights the 100% vegan and sustainable nature of our barefoot shoes, while providing exceptional comfort and functionality.

    VEGAN SUEDE

    : Recycled PET Bottles

    We also sew Bohempia barefoot shoes using premium vegan suede - Ultrasuede®, made from recycled polyester fibers, including plant-based ones. This innovative material helps us reduce our ecological footprint and dependence on fossil fuels, while ensuring high quality and planet-friendly production.

    SUNSHINE SNEAKERS ☀️

    The vegan Ultrasuede®, dyed hemp canvas for sneakers, and shoe laces all come together at a family company in Romania. This company specializes not only in making soles from natural rubber but also in complete production of our barefoot shoes.

    The entire operation runs on solar energy, meaning every pair of Bohempia barefoot shoes is made with minimal environmental impact. Plus, the shoes are made within the European Union, so they comply with strict regulations and quality standards. Their modern approach and mindful production methods make them the best partner we could have found.
