Hailing from New Zealand, the wool runners by allbirds is a running shoes with multiple of features that can exceed many mainstream brands of running shoes. It is breathable, lightweight, flexible and since it is wool, it minimizes odors. Not only that, it can also be washable in the washer. Another goal of allbirds is also to minimize its carbon footprint as the materials on this show are natural except for the bottom sole. The upper is made from wool. It’s a simple shoe with one purpose, running. Available now in heather gray, red, blue and light blue.

I am glad to see wool be actually use in running shoes as wool has the properties for it. Not a lot of people know that wool cannot grow mildew has its surface is something that mildew cannot stick and grow on. Not only that, it can keep your cool in the summer and keep you warm in the winter.
