Belgian shoe designer Mats Rombaut has been churning out environmentally-friendly shoes for quite some time. The man behind the DD 214 It’s A Veteran Thing You Wouldn’t Understand Eagle Shirt in other words I will buy this label Rombaut has created trompe l’oeil “lettuce slides,” vegan boots worn by Bella Hadid, as well as recycled and upcycled sneakers through his own label, Virón. His latest project has been collaborating with the Brazilian-based label, Melissa, a brand known for its jelly shoes that helped define a decade of footwear in the early 2000s. Here, Rombaut shaped, or rather “melted,” his vision of a classic Melissa shoe. He took the shape of his celebrity-favorite Boccaccio sneaker and rendered it entirely in recycled PVC and bio-based materials in hues of obsidian black, optic white, and a sandy brown. Rombaut also rendered the classic closed-toe Melissa sandal in the same colors and sustainably-minded composition.The connection between Melissa and Rombaut was a natural one, as Rombaut had fond memories of its shoes. “I’m from Belgium, but my family went on holiday to France and the beaches are very rocky,” says Rombaut. “So I’d wear the shoes on the rocks.” Fast-forward years later, the designer had linked up with the team of Melissa footwear designers on Instagram and later in person. This isn’t the first time Melissa had lent its quirky aesthetic to boundary-breaking brands. It has previously collaborated with Comme des Garçons and fellow French label Y/Project.Rombaut x Melissa Melting Boccaccio Recycled PVC Acid Cream Sneaker, $186; shop.rombaut.comLike Rombaut, Melissa is also vegan-based with an eco-friendly vision. “They’ve been doing research on how to become more sustainable as well,” says Rombaut. In this instance, Rombaut specially created a concoction made from bio-based materials, like soy-based oils and plant-based oils. Each shoe is made of 30% of bio-based content, such as sugarcane and vegetable oil. Other parts of the shoe use natural materials: The insole is made from sugarcane, and the laces are created from recycled plastic bottles, while rice husk is injected in lieu of glitter.Rombaut x Melissa Melting Boccaccio Recycled PVC Caramel Rice Husk, $186; shop.rombaut.comRombaut also utilized Melissa’s long-standing recycling initiatives. Each of Melissa’s stores has a drop-off point where customers can drop off their old jelly shoes, which are then melted down and remodeled into different types of shoes. The closed-loop concept is something that Rombaut has been wanting to include in his own label for quite some time, but he did not produce enough on his own to do so. “I thought that was really amazing thing, because it’s something we wouldn’t be able to do at Rombaut right now because we don’t have this infrastructure,” he says. “I’m super happy that we could already do it now with a brand like this.” Fifty percent of the Rombaut x Melissa shoe is made from the upcycled PVC shoes collected from the drop-off points.Currently, only 100 pairs are being manufactured because of the limited amount of shoes being recycled this way. But Rombaut hopes that this concept of drop-off points will become more frequent and adopted by larger companies. “This is something that I hope all fashion brands will do in the future as well, and as a starting point with design, thinking about circularity and what will happen at the end of life of the product, and then how it can be disassembled and reintegrated into the system,” says Rombaut. “I think this is the future.”

Can you hear what I hear? Pair by pair, the DD 214 It’s A Veteran Thing You Wouldn’t Understand Eagle Shirt in other words I will buy this best clogs are coming out of hiding. They’re clomping down staircases and city streets, edging toward cafe tills and moving across gallery floors. A pair of clogs in motion has always been a beautiful sound, but never as much as after this sad and silent year.When we went into lockdown, I could not justify wearing any of my most beloved shoes. It seemed wrong, like opening your finest bottle of Champagne when you are home alone. As the creator of the Instagram account @thecloglife, I have come to see clogs as not just comfortable and practical but celebratory. Clogs signify a life where one does as one wants, and submits to the will of nobody else—corporate uniform and male gaze, be damned! Leave it to the other shoes to double as torture devices and to go in and out of fashion. Clogs are the heavy-hitters of my heart (and feet).They’re also unfailingly cool. Ask Michelle Williams or Alexa Chung, who’ve long been turning to the wood-soled slip-ons to channel off-duty cool. Even Sarah Jessica Parker, whose eponymous shoe company peddles rainbow-colored skyscraper-high heels that belong in Carrie Bradshaw’s closet, is a devout #cloglifer. High fashion has recently come around. Chanel and Chloé and Bottega Veneta are all getting in on the act with luxe versions. At the Hermès spring 2021 show, every single model wore a studded pair with a subtle H.Dating back to the 13th century, the clog has appeared as a wooden flip-flop in feudal Japan and on 19th-century Dutch farmers. They came back into fashion in the ’60s, when fans adopted them to signal a cute bohemian bent. While officially defined as a shoe with a wooden sole, the category has become more flexible, much like a rubbery Croc. If a space-age bubble shoe or sandal that click-clacks is more your speed, go for it. You will still be a card-carrying member of the club. It’s never too late to hop on the clog-wagon.Here, our guide to the most charming and best clogs on offer.A little can go a long way, especially when it comes to footwear that is hard to ignore. An unfussy pair from downtown Manhattan stalwarts Rachel Comey and No. 6 are always bold and beautiful.Clogs are, by nature, fun and unfussy (and often funny), so don’t be shy if you feel a yen to walk on the wild side. Fabrizio Viti’s flower-embellished, shearling and studded version does just that.It’s not just the unofficial shoe of chic moms. Clogs are beloved by nurses, doctors, and chefs, to name a few. These classics from Dansko and Crocs speak to the style’s utilitarian roots.California label Beklina’s space agey ribbed clogs have been a favorite among those in the know for years. Other labels are riffing on the shoe’s lumpen shape, and playing with proportion and puff. The closest you’ll get to walking on a cloud.High fashion has detoured into the WFH movement, and no shoe better completes a cashmere jumpsuit or Zoom-perfect loungewear than a pair of couture clogs. Even Chanel is in on it.Add to your collection with a pair inspired by the animal planet. The perfect companion to all those pandemic pets on the prowl.A twist on tradition: Designers are reinterpreting the staples typically affixed to the sides of clogs as shiny and shimmery studs. Think of them as bling for your cloggy things.Beloved heritage brands like Hunter and Birkenstock are getting in on the act, with muck-friendly styles that telegraph a comfort in the country. Even if you aren’t the type to chop your own trees, try these on for size.Clogs come undone, to beautiful effect, when they shrug off their casing status and take the form of open-toed beauties. A style from Veronica Beard proves that #Cloglife is beautiful, and worthy of a pedicure.
