BRAND
LØCI x ILARIA
WHAT
Ilaria Urbinati, our very own LEO Founder and stylist to the likes of Ryan Reynolds, Donald Glover, Chris Evans and The Rock has teamed up with London-based 100% sustainable, vegan brand LØCI on three exclusive mens and womens sneakers made from a unique blend of ocean recycled plastic sourced from the Mediterranean and the Atlantic coast of Africa.
GOOD FOR THE PLANET
Each pair ensures a positive footprint is made. The collection used cork for their insoles and midsoles due to its unique set of properties not found in any other naturally existing material—which, as a bonus, makes them hands down the most comfortable pair of sneakers we’ve ever tried (really, ever)! They are are lightweight, moldable, hypoallergenic, soft, and buoyant.
HOT & COLD
Bamboo and recycled nylon were used for the lining— which is light & breathable through summer and warm in the winter.
GIVING BACK
LØCI will donate 10% of profits from the collection to Ilaria’s favorite foundation, Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, one of Africa’s oldest wildlife charities, which also rescues and rehabilitates orphan baby elephants in Kenya. Based in Kenya, Sheldrick Wildlife Trust strives to protect a number of threatened and endangered species, including black and white rhinos, as well as the iconic African elephants, securing safe havens for all wildlife in the area and helping to preserve the entire ecosystems and diverse flora and fauna sustained in these places of stunning natural beauty.
