CIRCULAR TECHNOLOGY

4EVERLOOP™ - Our sneakers are built on a proprietary recyclable technology called 4EVERLOOP™. A breakthrough innovation designed entirely from recycled polyester on a mono-material base.

ESTERE™ - Our Patented Raw Material and Secret Sauce. Made from recycled plastic bottles and recycled polyester textiles. A revolutionary mono material innovation which can be produced into
both a midsole and outsole replacing traditional EVA and Rubber.

MIDSOLE - The distinctive marbling is created through Supercritical Fluid Injection Foaming (SCIF). Nitrogen is injected into the ESTERE™ material, creating flame patterns—so every pair is unique and different.

OUTSOLE - Through innovative injection-molding technology, our outsoles are also made with EsteRE™, making them 100% recyclable in a closed-loop system.

Sizing & Fit

What They Say

Bought the Cream/White after seeing them on Instagram and love them. The color is unreal in person — richer than the photos. Get compliments every single time I wear them. Now want them in every colorway.

Theo L.London UK

I’ve tried a lot of "eco" sneakers and most of them look really basic. ANIMA is different. The silhouette is sharp; the colorways are considered. Wore my new ones to a gallery opening last week and got stopped three times.

Devon M.Brooklyn NY

Went with my usual US10 and they fit perfectly. I have a slightly wider foot and was worried, but the toe box has just enough room without looking bulky. No breaking in, buy your normal size.

Priya R.Austin TX

I've been skeptical of every brand that claims "recyclable" because 99% of the time it's BS marketing. Did my research on ANIMA before buying and the take-back program seems totally legit — you send them back at end of life and its free. Proud to support a brand doing it properly instead of the usual greenwashing.

Three weeks of daily wear and they've held up better than pairs I've paid twice as much for. The shoe feels premium and the quality is great. I just ordered a second pair.

Lucia M.Barcelona ES

Sized true and they fit perfectly —Wore them every day for a week and zero break-in. What sold me was the recyclable take-back — I called customer service to ask how it works and they walked me through the whole process.

Nina O.Toronto CA

Super comfortable. 10/10

Sam W.Denver CO

The shoe is genuinely comfortable — no break-in, fits true to size.
