Cirro YY Bamboo Men Black/Optic White

The Cirro YY Bamboo is a part of the vegan plant powered range. It's a super light, cool, and breathable lace-up sneaker made from OEKE-TEK ® certified bamboo (a.k.a. the good stuff), with accents of cactus leather. Why Bamboo? Bamboo is the fastest growing plant on earth producing 30% more oxygen than the same amount of trees. YY Nation’s research and development has created a unique soft but super strong material, with the added natural benefits of being antibacterial and resistant to moisture to keep your feet cool and dry. The lining is made from wood pulp that is spun into a thread that you can wear with or without socks.

The Cirro can be dressed up or dressed down making it a super versatile style. The durable, stable sole is crafted using YY ingredients of Algae or Sugarcane. Rubber inserts increase grip allowing you to get around with ease. The Cirro is super lightweight—both on your foot and on the planet, with low carbon emissions (average 5.97KgCO2e per pair!) that really ups their feel-good factor. -

The Cirro Bamboo sneaker with Algae sole uses 5.86kg CO2e. The Cirro Bamboo sneaker with Sugarcane sole uses 6.08kg CO2e compared to an industry average of 14kg CO2e per pair of sneakers. YY Nation carbon results were independently analyzed and certificated using ISO 14067 standards by thinkstep™ and Ekos (™).
