Simply put, we’re shoes made better. Made from recycled and bio-based materials, our first silhouette looks like work and wears like leisure. Our sustainable shoe bottoms feature a sugarcane based foam and our uppers are constructed using recycled leather. Combined with our other environmental efforts, these eco-friendly materials are what drive Ponto to be innovators among ethical shoe companies. Growing up in Southern California, the ocean holds a special place in our story. While Pontus is a greek deity of the sea, Ponto is also named after our favorite childhood beach in Carlsbad, CA. We donate a portion of proceeds from each purchase to protecting our oceans through our partnership with the Changing Tides Foundation. We invite you to join us and walk towards a more harmonious relationship with yourself and our planet.
