In this day and age it is great to find a company that is fashion, environmentally, and socially conscious. This combination is often few and far between, but in the case of Tretorn sneakers it is the core of their company’s ethos. Tretorn is a Swedish company specializing in the manufacture of rubber products. In the early 20th century, they expanded into sneakers and now have a wonderful line available in Europe and select United States locations. Their low-hype marketing strategy targets socially conscious people who love to live life outdoors. 

The core of Tretorn sneakers philosophy centers on the S.A.F.E. concept: Socially Accountable Friendly Environment. They constantly work to revise their manufacturing processes to be both labor friendly and environmentally sound. All of their products are PVC free. 

The Tretorn line is divided into sneakers and rubbers for men and women. Their rubbers feature flip flops and gum boots. There a number of styles of Tretorn sneakers for both men and women from which to choose. The looks are classic and understated. Most of the men’s sneakers are variations of the classic plimsoll; the original pre-Keds sneaker. These shoes have a canvas upper and a gum rubber sole that extends up the shoe to the mid-sole area. Many of the men’s shoes also have a white rubber toe reminiscent of the classic Chuck Taylor shoe. However, there are also many sophisticated men’s sneakers with chocolate leather uppers. Some of the upper level Tretorn sneakers come with a Gortex lining to keep you feet warm and dry. 

Many of the women’s sneakers look similar to the men’s line, but with a slimmer profile. While there are a lot of variations on the plimsoll-esque shoe, there is a reason this style has endured for so long. Tretorn sneakers give their wears a classic look encased in high tech materials for the best quality and comfort on the market. 

If you live in the United States and want to own your own pair of Tretorn sneakers, the best place to look for the shoes is on their website. However, Tretorn sneakers can be found in select stores in larger cities.
