Men | Mello in Castagna Regenerative

Introducing the Mello, a first-of-its-kind luxury sneaker that restores the planet""and biodegrades back into it. Handcrafted in Italy with vegetable-tanned regenerative leather from the Swiss Alps, this Castagna colorway is set on a lightweight and durable LACTAE HEVEA® sole that's handmade from responsibly sourced hevea-tree milk. The recycled corn, wool, and kenaf insole delivers cushioned comfort all day long.

Important information: Our Castagna leather is a vegetable-tanned premium Italian leather. Thanks to this tanning method and the hand-polishing, it attains a unique depth and sheen. It will age gracefully and change its appearance slightly over time. Given the natural tanning process, you can expect variations from the images shown. These variations are a result of the manufacturing process and a testament to the high-quality craftsmanship we pursue.

The outsoles may differ in shades of 'cream' due to the different levels of carotene in hevea milk tree which is the natural property of a biodegradable sole.
