The Retro Sneaker is a modern classic inspired by vintage styles, reimagined to fit barefoot principles. Created with panels of certified natural leather and an amber sole for contrast.
FEATURES
+ Leather Working Group-certified leather
+ Wide toe cage and no heel drop. Eyestay design makes this shoe feel spacious
+ 5-6 mm stack height for closer contact with the ground
MATERIALS
+ Natural Leather: Sourced from local and environmentally-conscious tanneries, our natural leather is not only durable and breathable but also adapts to your foot's shape. We use Leather Working Group-certified materials, emphasizing reduced environmental impact.
+ Soy Protein: Our innovative sneaker soles blend thermoplastic rubber with soy protein, improving biodegradability. This material choice not only reduces waste but also cuts down on carbon emissions.
SUSTAINABILITY + ETHICS
Ethical standards are at our core; our manufacturing prioritizes worker safety, above market wages, and humane treatment. We utilize small-batch production for efficient inventory management and waste reduction. Origo sources materials predominantly from North America and manufactures near our warehouse to minimize travel distances. Our eco-conscious approach extends to packaging, utilizing garden-compostable materials and innovative kraft shippers. Each pair sold also supports Amazon reforestation through our partnership with One Tree Planted.
I love the way this shoe fits. It’s very much true to size and comfortable and goes with so many outfits. The only suggest I have for improvement is that the rubber used for the sole tends to wear through very quickly. If future models could have something tougher, it would be a five-star shoe in my book.

Perfect
Needed a casual barefoot shoe. Found these to be the best looking of my options. I was worried they would not be wide enough, but the fit feels fine even with toe spacers on.
