If you were wondering what Terra Plana means, the definition is Flat Land. It looks like we live on a flat land but, as with
Terra Plana products, there is a more subtle truth. Terra Plana’s goal is to create sustainable shoes by using a variety of non-generic products, sustainable strategies, minimizing waste, and maximizing product use. Sustainable shoe making staples are repairability, lightness, anatomic design and durability.
Terra Plana uses a variety of eco-friendly materials to create their unique shoes for example: chrome free leathers, recycled rubber, discarded clothing, even seat belts and car seats. They have also introduced E-leather an eco revolutionary leather by-product that is a blend of leather and textile fibers.
We call Terra Plana shoes unique because of the design concept which is to keep the shoes as close to walking barefoot as possible. Imagine, when you slip on Terra Plana shoes you are not only treating your feet to a comfortable, natural way of walking but you are also cleaning up the world.
