Sneakers brand created around 3 keywords: sustainability, transparency and modernity. The sneakers are designed with the concept of reduce, reuse and recycle

Norm is partnered with 1% for the Planet, commiting to donate 1% of their sales revenues to environmental nonprofits to help protect our home planet. They are also partnered with Graine De Vie, an organization that plants trees, managing reforestation in Madagascar. The brand has committed to plant 2 trees for each pair of shoes they produce

Norm believes in animal respect and well-being which is why all of their products are PETA-Approved Vegan. This means they are certified to be created with absolutely no animal products involved at any stage of their production process

Norm is a small business founded by three friends, Antoine, Arnaud, and Nicolas, who set out to produce sneakers with the planet in mind

Norm's sneakers are made with circularity in mind. 90% of their materials are recycled, giving a second life to waste. In addition, for each pair they design and manufacture, they look for technologies that allow them to use less material, make their sneakers easy to wear and repair, and make all their components recyclable

The 1L11-01, the first unisex sneaker designed by NORM, is the result of three years of research and development, and is created from 90% recycled materials. It's made of a single piece upper construction with NORM Integrated Loops System [N.I.L.S ] and advanced eco-materials sourced exclusively from Europe. More than a product, it’s a holistic concept that claims the creation of new standards: eco-design, transparency and modernity.
Thanks to their knitting technology, the single piece upper construction made from 6 plastic bottles enables the reduction of material waste by 65%, and offers optimal comfort.
Materials
Norm uses Ecoantex® or Newlife® yarns to make their uppers, insoles cover, labels, ribbons, laces and for the assembly. They are made by Antex in Spain and Sinterama in Italy from 100% recycled post-consumer PET bottles.
SIZING: Norm shoes are manufactured in European sizes.

Recycled polyester also known as rPET, is created by melting down existing plastic and re-spinning it into new polyester fiber. This fabric can be made from either post-industrial or post-consumer materials. For example, 5 water bottles yield enough fiber for one extra large T-shirt. This material repurposes existing plastic that would otherwise end up in the landfill or the ocean. 

Recycled polyester’s sustainable production requires low resources and energy to produce, and contributes low CO2 emissions. It also reduces the need to extract crude oil and natural gas from the ground to make more plastic, which is much better for the Earth.

Recycled polyester has not much difference from virgin polyester. It exhibits high strength, durability, versatility, and performance, lasting long in your closet, and surviving expected wear and tear easily.

Garments from recycled polyester aim to be continuously recycled without degradation of quality, allowing for circularity.

A synthetic material. However, instead of utilizing new materials to craft the fabric (i.e. petroleum), recycled polyester makes use of existing plastic.
