We know our customers like to know exactly what they're buying; we're not going to sugar coat it, but we are going to explain it. We've divided up all of the sustainable features we've identified across our product ranges and grouped them into three so you know how your purchase is making an impact: Think Nature, Think Welfare, Think People.
The Scarpa Women's Vortex Shoe Approach Shoe has the following sustainability attributes...
-
Natural Fibres
Products using natural fibres can range from cotton to wool to hemp and silk - but by being naturally made, they will also naturally biodegrade at their end of lifecycle. Even if you have a natural fibre product, it can probably still be recycled or repurposed before being disposed of. However, if it truly has reached the end of its use, natural fibres need air to biodegrade so please don't dispose of them in landfill.
-
Local Manufacturing
This brand manufactures over 80% of its products in the country of its headquarters, which has many benefits both for the environment and for workers. Local production means less CO2 emissions, more control over working conditions, and helps to boost the local economy.

They are good walking shoes, I haven’t tested them in slippy conditions yet.
Weird insoles
Bought these as I own scarps boots which are so comfortable these were a let down. Blisters the same size as the cutouts on the insoles bruised top of foot as there is no give overall very upset

Great walking shoe
Gifted pair at Christmas. Great fit, light weight with a comfortable, secure fit.
Great walking shoe.
I'm on my 3rd pair of these very comfortable shoes, wouldn't buy any other. No need to "break them in". I know they are a bit pricey, but well worth the money.
Great walking shoes
So comfortable I could wear them all the time. I am not in the least sporty - you could say I was old fat and very unfit. These shoes were bought for a very special holiday later this year.
