Leather has long been the backbone of Oliver Cabell's footwear, and their dedication to sourcing the finest materials led them to partner with a renowned tannery. After researching over 70 tanneries, they found a perfect match that has been crafting leather since 1954. Renowned for its high-end finish and natural feel, the tannery exclusively produces full-grain leather—the best in the industry. Not only does this leather age gracefully over time, but its production also adheres to ethical and environmental practices. Moreover, the tannery's support for small, family farms ensures complete traceability of their hides.

Fair Pricing: A Paradigm Shift in the Luxury Footwear Industry

Unlike major luxury brands that mark up their products exorbitantly, Oliver Cabell believes in making luxury accessible to all. By forging strong relationships with the best manufacturers and selling directly to customers, they eliminate the traditional markups while maintaining the same top-tier materials and craftsmanship found in other luxury brands. This allows Oliver Cabell to offer their customers high-quality sneakers without breaking the bank.

The Women's Vegan 581 is a testament to Oliver Cabell's commitment to sustainability and mindful design. Made in Italy, these retro-inspired sneakers are the epitome of eco-friendly fashion. Here's a breakdown of the materials used:

  • Upper: Vegan Corn — crafted from 35 per cent corn waste and 65 per cent bio-based polyurethane (biodegradable), this material sets a new standard for sustainable footwear.
  • Outsole: A blend of 50 per cent natural and 50 per cent recycled rubber, minimising environmental impact without compromising on performance.
  • Lining & Laces: 100 per cent Bamboo — a renewable resource that further reduces the carbon footprint of the sneakers.
  • The Carbon Footprint: Oliver Cabell takes pride in the eco-friendliness of their products. The Women's Vegan 581 boasts a carbon footprint of just 4.81 pounds CO2e/pair, a fraction of the average sneaker's 13.6kg CO2e.
