Woodland's revolutionary 'Biodegradable footwear'


Woodland is a brand known for its eco friendly initiatives to strengthen its association with the environment. The range of biodegradable footwear is in association with the company’s CSR initiative Proplanet, a wing dedicated to making our mother Earth a better place to live in. It is one of the most exciting environmental innovations to be witnessed by the footwear industry.



The global apparel and footwear brand offers biodegradable shoes and sandals that are sturdy, durable and aesthetically designed. Woodland has pioneered a new way of looking at shoes that contribute in sustaining the environment.  As there is no major processing involved, the materials used are free of any harmful substances. The outer sole and heel is made of crepe rubber (natural raw rubber) and the upper is made of vegetable tanned leather, which has also been utilized in the lining of the shoe. Cellulose has been used to make the insole, the toe puffs and the counters. The insock / footbed is made of latex foam and duly covered by vegetable tanned leather. Water based rubber adhesive has been used for fabrication and the upper has been stitched to the insole and the sole. The thread and the laces are made of cotton.



The Footwear Design & Development Institute, Ministry of Commerce and Industry, Govt. of India has certified the shoes as biodegradable and eco-friendly.
