Komrads

Komrads

Greet and Mark, the founders of Komrads, are tennis shoe addicts, friends of the world, and above all, caring parents.

They are determined to help future generations protect the planet and believe in the power of consumer brands over political institutions.

Belgian-based Komrads is one alternative to dressing up whose authentic products seek to rebuild the world instead of destroying it.

The more Greet and Mark got to know the production processes of the clothing industry, the more questions they had about it. The pollution from production, water roofs, sweatshops, carbon emissions, and destroyed rainforests were unimaginable things to understand.

Out of shock and wonder grew the starting point of a dream. Since then, Komrads has gone on to make comfortable, fashionable sneakers that don't require the destruction of nature or human suffering.

Komrads' sneakers are made entirely from reused and recycled materials. Komrads' sneakers are a genuine solution to a huge problem - part of the circular economy.

Komrads wants to represent and celebrate personality and individuality. It wants to be a brand and a product that everyone can feel at home in, regardless of age, race, gender, or life circumstances.

Komrads exist for all generations, present, and future.
