Anima

Anima makes sneakers designed to be recycled and made again. Each pair is built from recycled polyester, the sort of material you'd find in plastic bottles and old jerseys, so the upper, midsole and outsole are all made from the same stuff. That is the idea behind 4EVERLOOP, the brand's own recyclable technology, which uses a mono-material base called ESTERE.

The brand runs a take-back scheme. Send back any Anima sneaker, in any condition, and it gets recycled. You get $20 off your next pair, so the discount is quoted in dollars.

Customers say the pairs fit true to size with no breaking in, and they like the sharp silhouette and colourways. You can find Anima at END. in the UK.
