The new insoles are also biodegradable, low environmental impact, metal free, breathable and 100% natural, in keeping with the tradition of the tanning consortium.
“The principles of sustainability and traceability constitute the heritage of the Cuoio di Toscana brand, which today adds a further piece to the consortium’s green values and does so with the talent of two young Italian designers, Federico Cina and Marco Rambaldi, and in collaboration with the Italian Podiatrists’ Association,” said Antonio Quirici, president of the consortium.
Reinforcing the consortium’s lifestyle concept was a fashion show featuring the iconic green sole Cuoio di Toscana total looks by Don The Fuller, a Made in Italy excellence that espouses the same principles of sustainability.
