LESS WASTE | LESS CONSUMPTION | LESS WATER
P448 products are made with the future of the planet in mind. Since inception, we have remained passionately dedicated to researching and developing products that reduce our planetary footprint in order to make the world cleaner and better. And that’s exactly what the woven “Project Sustainability” tag on many of our styles stands for Project Sustainability marks our most eco-conscious
innovations—including sneakers made using recycled and upcycled leather and suede, invasive species skins and even vegan apple leather (that’s right). It also refers to our cutting edge packaging and shipping techniques designed to save up to two pounds of paper per online order and more. Read on for details.

01
The Invasive Species
The first-to-market line of sneakers made from invasive fish skins including lionfish and carp.
Lionfish causes the extinction of plants and animals in coral reefs, therefore reducing critical ocean biodiversity and destroying ocean habitats; every P448 Lionfish pair protects up to 70,000 native reef fish.
Carp have a ravenous appetite for plants and can quickly reduce and eliminate large quantities of aquatic vegetation from water bodies, which can lead to the alteration or loss of habitat for native species, reduction in food availability for waterfowl and increased occurrences of algal blooms.

The RE:New
The leather fibers are combined with synthetic fibers and woven together in a process called ‘water fusion’.
The result of various finishing phases, including pigmentation, is a single material roll. RE:new leather’s production process drastically cuts back on waste levels, reducing environmental impact by 80% compared to traditional leather-making.

The Vegan
The recipe for our P448 Vegan Apple styles calls for a base of Italian-made grained apple leather.
Our 100% vegan sneaker capsule made of appleskin, which begins as juicy apples growing in the sun-drenched orchards of South Tyrol, Italy. Approximately 30,000 tons of waste from apple cultivation and processing gets transformed into the materials that create a durable, leather-like material.
Vegan apple has a lower CO2 impact than other leathers. And, of course, it’s cruelty-free.

The Frenkye
Our limited edition Frenkye collection utilizes leftover iconic materials from our factory that would otherwise end up in landfills, and gives them new life.
Made from surplus fabrics, quantities for each style are limited to 40 to 50 pairs per style.
Limited edition collection that remixes leftover iconic materials from our factory that would otherwise end up in landfills.

In order to reduce the overall carbon footprint of P448 products, the brand aims to reduce the quantity of single-use materials produced for packing and shipping to customers.
SAVE UP TWO POUNDS OF PAPER.
P448 products currently ship without shoe boxes or print-outs, and use only a multi-purpose dustbag to protect the shoes during shipping (it doubles as a tote after shoes are removed). The dustbags are placed directly in the direct-to-consumer shipping box, also made of 100% recycled material and reused up to three times.
Additional information is accessible via QR codes.
This practice saves up to two pounds of paper per online order.
