This season’s retro-inspired, candy-colored sneakers offer a sweet way to add some pep to your step. Low impact mixed with high fashion is the definition of Chloé’s new Nama sneaker. The commitment to lowering the environmental impact may be the driving force behind its construction with 35% fewer greenhouse gases and 80% less water used than the previous Sonnie sneaker. The end result reinforces Creative Director Gabriela Hearst’s larger vision for the brand of a purpose-driven commitment to environmental change. What’s not sacrificed here is serious style.
