Compost with these shoes grew better than standard compost, so the maker calls them bio-enhancing. But manufacturing and shipping use serious energy, so the real win is designing them to break down efficiently at the end.

The compost with our shoes in grew better than just the standard compost. So we could basically claim the shoes are bio-enhancing. Amazing. And that really was our baseline. That's the minimum of what we want to achieve. But, you know, we also have to recognize that through processing, shipping, there's a lot of energy that goes into these materials and into the final good, what we put in. So we want to make sure that at end of life, we can be efficient.
