IMSD into practice!
Today I can proudly announce that I am the owner of my first sustainable sandals. Why sustainable? Because besides the fact that they are mostly made out of natural materials, the packaging is super small. This company keeps its craftsmen in mind by ensuring they get a fair pay, medical cover, 13th salary (all things that may seem logical to us, but sometimes the reality is different. Especially with the demands of the Western World being met by people in Asia…..). The Ethical commitments are among others, visiting the production site often and making sure part of the profits made are destined for improving the life of the workers and negotiating raw materials directly with suppliers. No middle men! I actually feel good. I’ve bought my first responsible, sustainable sandals. And they were not even expensive!
