LONDON – UK footwear firm Vivobarefoot has launched what it says is the world’s first re-commerce site catering exclusively to the repair and resale of shoes.
Through its ReVivo programme, the London-based brand hopes to reverse the cycle of footwear ending up in landfill by accepting shoes in-store that will be revamped – made possible through a partnership with The Boot Repair Company.
“At Vivobarefoot we’re on a journey to make the most sustainable shoes in the world: regenerative for people and planet. The launch of ReVivo is a super exciting step in that journey and one of many initiatives we are taking to make sure none of our shoes ever end up slowly decaying in landfill,” commented chief executive, Galahad Clark.
