Every year the fashion industry produces over 24 billion shoes made largely of synthetics, with little regard for the materials sourced, the wellbeing of the people involved or impact after disposal.

Orba is also included in this year’s Next List – the definitive list of the most sustainable products and businesses as judged by the Sustainable Business Network.
