Sole Responsibilty: Trèsolz Environmental Commitment

Policy Statement

At Trèsolz, sustainability is not just a feature — it is a core principle. We are committed to weaving environmental responsibility into every stage of our design, production, and distribution. This policy defines the standards and actions we follow to minimize our ecological footprint, promote ethical fashion practices, and contribute to a more circular and inclusive footwear industry.

1. Sustainable Materials & Safe Disposal

Trèsolz is dedicated to sourcing premium materials that are:

  • Naturally degradable

  • Non-toxic

  • Environmentally safe at end-of-life

Every material is evaluated for both performance and environmental impact, ensuring that each pair of Trèsolz shoes achieves a balance of durability, comfort, and sustainability. We actively research and test eco-conscious alternatives such as recycled rubber, biodegradable foams, and plant-based leather substitutes to reduce the long-term ecological footprint of our products.

2. Longevity, Repairability & Circular Design

Rejecting the fast-fashion model, we embrace a product lifecycle based on longevity and repairability. Trèsolz footwear is engineered to last — using construction methods that allow for easy maintenance and repairs. This approach supports a circular economy by:

  • Extending product lifespan

  • Reducing returns and textile waste

  • Encouraging responsible ownership

Through timeless design and functional durability, we encourage sustainable consumption habits and shift the focus from disposability to long-term value.

3. Ethical Production & Packaging

Trèsolz upholds a responsible and transparent supply chain, partnering only with manufacturers who share our ethical and environmental standards. We prioritize:

  • Fair labor practices

  • Low-impact production methods

  • Suppliers with recognized sustainability certifications (e.g., Bluesign®, OEKO-TEX®)

Our packaging is minimal, fully recyclable, or compostable, eliminating excess while ensuring product protection.

4. Take-Back & Product Recovery Programs

To further our circular vision, Trèsolz is developing a Take-Back Program that enables customers to return worn shoes for:

  • Repair and refurbishment

  • Responsible recycling

This initiative extends the life of footwear, prevents landfill waste, and gives customers an active role in sustainable fashion. Depending on condition, refurbished pairs may be resold or donated, maximizing their lifecycle.

5. Continuous Innovation, Transparency & Education

Trèsolz is committed to continuous innovation in sustainable design and materials. Our efforts include:

  • Measuring and reporting on environmental impact

  • Setting measurable goals for emissions, waste, and resource use

  • Educating customers on care, repair, and responsible disposal

With transparency and collaboration, we aim to improve both industry practices and consumer awareness.

Conclusion

Inspired by the sustainability leadership of brands like Patagonia and Canada Goose, Trèsolz applies the same ambition to the footwear industry. We believe that ethical, inclusive, and environmentally conscious design is not a trend — it is the future of fashion.

Through this policy, we hold ourselves accountable for creating products and a business model that respects both people and the planet.
