WASTE DOESN'T BELONG IN THE ≈ OCEAN ≈ SO WE TURNED IT INTO SANDALS THAT NOW BELONG ON YOUR FEET
OUR OCEAN-POWERED MISSION
We started Nuoceans to do something about the waste we couldn’t ignore. By turning ocean waste flip-flops into recycled, vegan sandals, we challenge how products are made and what they’re made from. Because the future doesn’t need more stuff. It needs better choices.
Watch how flip-flops are being shredded
8 tonnes. 53,000 flip-flops.
So far, we’ve recovered over 8 tonnes of discarded flip-flops from the ocean.
That’s around 300g of waste in every pair of Nuos.
FRom lost soles to solemates
straps
Vegan leather made from a blend of recycled PVC & Polyester - or, on the Coco model, bio-based palm fibre.
cork footbed
A blend of recycled cork, sourced from ground cork waste and repurposed cork stoppers, and natural latex, used for our soft foam layer on top enhancing extra support and comfort.
COLOURFUL ICONIC MIDSOLE
Made from 100% recycled ocean-recovered flip-flops, held together with minimal non-toxic water based glue.
Every pair rescues around 300g of flip-flop waste.
Outsole
Made from recycled pre-consumer EVA, utilising waste materials from the shoe manufacturing process.
