PRODUCT PARTNERS
POMOCA
An Exclusive Limited Series of Slippers in Upcycling
Fellow Swiss brand Pomoca was looking to keep the unrecyclable waste from their plush freeride ski skins from going to the landfill. Enter BAABUK. Together we upcycled the cuttings into durable and versatile bottoms for a limited series slippers that embody our mission of making a positive impact and delivering the most comfortable wool footwear.
The grip-and-glide bottoms are great for sliding across wood floors to fall into your lover’s arms while the felted wool uppers are perfect for slipping into something more comfortable. Each sole is randomly crafted from Pomoca’s seven shades of skins so you’re in for a colorful surprise when you open the box. Don’t worry, no matter what style you get you’ll be going green with these unique and comfortable, eco-friendly slippers.
UNIL
La Basket de l'UNIL
Et si les moutons de l’UNIL n’étaient pas uniquement des symboles de la biodiversité sur le campus et pouvaient faire « plus » qu’entretenir les espaces verts de l’UNIL ? Et si la laine des moutons de l’UNIL pouvait être valorisée pour créer un produit dont nous avons tous besoin ?
L’UNIL et Baabuk ont décidé de franchir ce pas. Découvrez la basket UNIL !
