We live right by the beach and often find ourselves down there, throwing rocks into the sea, or walking in the nearby woods with the dog. The weather in Wales isn't always kind which is why it is good to be prepared with the right footwear and these waterproof trainers from Loom Footwear look like they could be game changers!
Fully waterproof
The main selling point of Loom Footwear is that they are fully, and permanently waterproof. This really appeals to me as it means I don't have to take two pairs of shoes with me when going out for a walk, I know that even if I get splashed by the tide or step in a puddle my feet will stay nice and dry. Given that I love going on long walks this is brilliant and saves me carting wellies with me wherever I go! Moisture wicking technology makes these shoes one of the most advanced on the market and the waterproofing is permanent - no topping up or maintenance required.
Anti-odour
Loom Waterproof sneakers are antibacterial and anti-odour - great news for the smellier footed people in your life (hubby I'm thinking of you!). They are breathable so that they release and absorb moisture from the air so your feet don't sweat and won't feel moist. They have anti-microbal properties which destroys bacteria which means your feet won't smell.
Comfortable
Loom sneakers promise to be extremely comfortable with an internal cushioning system which has been through multiple rounds of testing. They are also lightweight and flexible which is a rare find in waterproof shoes. This means you can go for long walks in them and reviewers have claimed that they are the most comfortable shoe they have ever worn and that they are suitable for all activities from running to hiking. They have a slip on and off design which is great if you are putting them on in a hurry, although might mean that they are less supportive than other trainers. You can wear them with or without socks too.
As they are made from merino wool they are temperature controlled meaning they can be worn in all climates. They also fold down really small so they are perfect for travelling, exploring and globetrotting - you can pack light as these are the only pair of shoes that you will need.
Sustainably made
It is really important to me to make ethical and considered purchases and I'm always looking to invest in pieces that are sustainably made, such as these from Loom Footwear. They are made from a cruelty free material which is sourced from eco-friendly farms and are made using vegan-shorn merino wool. Each pair boasts a 500% reduction on carbon footprint than regular trainers and is produced using...
- 45% less energy
- 75% less fossil fuel
- 4500L less water
Loom footwear is available in mens and women's sizing and in the colours black and white. They have a simple, classic design which makes them visually appealing and means that they will go with pretty much anything. They retail at $250 which isn't cheap but they currently have an offer where you can pick up a pair for $99. They boast great reviews on their website and also elsewhere. Take a look at www.loomfootwear.com to find out more and buy yourself a pair.
