Life Re-Shoes Project

Bring us your worn mojito and help create a new generation of high quality recycled products.

EVERY YEAR OVER 24 BILLION NEW SHOES ARE PRODUCED IN THE WORLD, MOST OF WHICH END UP IN LANDFILL AT THE END OF THEIR LIFE CYCLE.

STEP 1: COMPLETED

COLLECTING THE WORN MOJITOS

In the first phase, the project will involve SCARPA’s distribution network to gather worn MOJITO shoes from consumers. The goal is to obtain secondary raw materials to produce 15,000 pairs of new shoes.

STEP 2: IN PROGRESS

REGENERATING

The collected shoes will become part of a virtuous recycling system, which aims to turn them into new raw materials, aiming for reduced environmental impact compared to standard production processes.

STEP 3: IN PROGRESS

THE NEW SHOE

A completely new and high quality style of shoe will reach the market, in Spring Summer 2026, to complete a circular and sustainable process.
