Our Philosophy
Footwear without a footprint
Have you ever slipped on a sustainably made shoe and wondered, “Why does doing the right thing have to be so uncomfortable?” Well, we’re here to change that. We whole-heartedly believe that all footwear should be designed with the planet – and the wearer’s comfort – in mind. And these two things shouldn’t be mutually exclusive.
Doing it differently since the beginning
Before our brand was born, the Zherys team worked as footwear designers for some of the world’s most well-known shoe brands. But these big brands weren’t ready to invest in sustainably made shoes. It was too expensive. Too challenging. And not profitable. So, instead of throwing in the towel, our Founder and CEO, Angelo, decided to go out on his own and do things the right way.
Taking a stand for sustainability
We’re always thinking about the future, which means we’re always thinking about how Zherys can be greener, more comfortable, and better overall. We’re committed to continuous improvement and keeping up on what’s best for our customers and the planet. Currently, we’re working on building insoles with eco-friendly Bloom Algae foam along with exploring bamboo, sugar cane, and hemp as alternative materials.
