TREDAGAIN Claystone Boots

Austin, Texas–based TREDAGAIN™ is on a mission: make great-looking, great-feeling shoes and sandals, all while minimizing our environmental footprint. With the Claystone moccasin boot, it has certainly succeeded. It features a full-grain waxed leather upper and a removable anatomical insole for comfort day after day and mile after mile. The outsole is made with the company's signature APX upcycled rubber tread. With APX, a high-quality raw equivalent, the company is able to convert used tires into outsoles through a clean, sustainable process—a process that won it the title of “Game Changer” in the spring 2016 issue of Inside Outdoor Magazine. The magazine says, “Until now, there has been no cost-effective, scalable, and non-environmentally egregious method to handle pre- or post-consumer or industrial rubber waste.”
