Women's Grape 'Leather'

The harsh realities of real leather is a distant thought for us at PANGAIA, instead we use an ethical, earth-friendly alternative in Grape Leather, created and repurposed from waste in the winemaking industry. Our sneakers are super-soft, comfortable and cushioned to be worn every day, no matter the occasion.

The Grape Sneaker
Vegea’s grape waste material was born out of a desire to repurpose waste from the Italian winemaking industry.
The solid remains of grapes after pressing (including the skins, pulp, seeds and stems) are combined with vegetable oil and water-based polyurethane (PUD). This biobased material is then coated onto cotton, resulting in a durable material made of more than 70% renewable and recycled raw materials.
Vegea’s material utilizes and repurposes waste materials, thereby extending the utility of the grapes and making the winemaking process more circular. The base material is cotton, and it uses the most environmentally-responsible form of polyurethane on the market.
