Are you looking for the perfect pair of sneakers that truly reflects your style and fashion sense? We all appreciate the minimalist aesthetic that effortlessly complements any outfit, from casual to formal, all year round.

A pair or two of sneakers are essential for a versatile wardrobe. They’re must-haves in our basics collection, pairing seamlessly with shirts, dresses, and pants for a timeless, year-round classic look. But for all classic fashion lovers, stains are our worst nightmare!

XpreSole® Coffee Sneakers offer the perfect solution – sneakers made from coffee grounds that help you avoid stains! The unique properties of coffee grounds make it easy to keep your shoes clean, odor-free, and stain-free after washing.

Additionally, coffee grounds provide excellent traction, moisture-wicking capabilities, and natural odor-absorbing and antimicrobial properties, ensuring your shoes stay fresh and hygienic. 

Did you know that most food waste, including coffee grounds, ends up in landfills due to a lack of composting infrastructure and education? At XpreSole®, we’re changing that by upcycling spent coffee grounds from coffee shops and cafes into our innovative product line.

By using coffee grounds, we reduce the need for traditional petroleum-based materials commonly used in the footwear industry, lower the carbon footprint, and contribute to a more sustainable future. Plus, coffee grounds are biodegradable, making our products even more eco-friendly.

Crafted from recycled coffee grounds and sustainable materials, these shoes not only reduce waste but also offer unparalleled comfort and style. With their sleek and modern design, these shoes are perfect for any occasion, whether you’re hitting the gym, strolling through the city, or relaxing at home.

If you already own white shoes but want more variety, don’t worry – we offer the same great features in a range of colors.

Connie’s protective upper with water-repellent membrane and UV protection has your feet covered in all kinds of weather! 

The outer layer features a high-tech nano-protective film that repels rainwater and dries immediately! It effectively blocks liquid and dirt infiltration, keeping your feet dry even on rainy days.Compared to other environmentally friendly materials like recycled PET bottles from ocean waste, the surface of coffee grounds is finely smooth, reducing the accumulation of dust and stains. Even when facing stubborn enemies like soy sauce, ketchup, or curry, a rinse with water leaves them clean and fresh as new!

The porous structure of coffee grounds within the shoe material actively absorbs moisture, drawing sweat away from your skin and allowing it to evaporate quickly. This moisture-wicking feature is particularly beneficial during warm weather or intense physical activity, as it helps regulate temperature and prevents the buildup of moisture that can lead to discomfort or odor.

The shoe material effectively blocks ultraviolet rays, reducing direct sunlight damage to the skin.The unique weaving technique combined with breathable coffee ground yarn material provides a noticeable cooling effect. 

In our tests, when subjected to temperatures above 40 degrees Celsius with a hairdryer, the temperature decreased by 2 degrees in just 30 seconds. Compared to regular sneakers, our shoes offer superior heat dissipation, and helps cool down your feet temperature by 1-2 °C on humid, hot summer days. 

The most impacting part of quality shoes is the durable outsole! Whether your shoes will be your best companion or your worst enemy when you wear them outdoors for longer trips – the durability, seams, and cushioning tell the difference!

Coffee-made shoes boast durable seams that resist cracking, ensuring long-lasting wear and reliability. The integration of coffee grounds into the shoe material enhances its strength and resilience, resulting in seams that withstand the rigors of daily use without compromising on quality.

Cody’s round shape design enhances its high grip capabilities. The rounded contours of the shoe provide exceptional traction and stability on various surfaces, from slick pavements to uneven terrain. This innovative design ensures that wearers feel confident and supported with every step, minimizing the risk of slips and falls.

Connie sets the benchmark for safety and reliability with its construction from high-performance natural rubber. Engineered to exceed expectations, these shoes boast a remarkable 30% increase in slip resistance compared to the international standard (SATRA standard TM-144).  

XpreSole® sneakers feature an exclusive adaptive comfort structure in the outsole. Crafted from 30% upcycled coffee grounds and 70% Eco-EVA, this innovative outsole leverages the porous nature of coffee grounds, filling the tiny pores with high-tech materials. The result is enhanced shock absorption, superior support, and increased elasticity.

Long days of wearing always bring us stinky humid shoes? With our coffee made sneakers, bad odors and non-breathability are all gone! 

The unique properties of coffee grounds, when integrated into shoe materials, create a naturally breathable environment for your feet. The porous structure of coffee grounds allows air to circulate freely, promoting ventilation and moisture evaporation, which helps keep your feet cool and comfortable, even on the hottest summer days.

Connie integrates coffee ground material into the fabric. Besides being resistant to yellowing, they leverage the “deodorizing and antibacterial” characteristics, with moisture absorption capacity far exceeding the industry standard by 15%. 

Their deodorizing ability is top-notch, effectively removing 23% of odor molecules! The visible results of our tests mean no more worries about sweaty feet in the summer!

Looking for shoes that are both convenient and efficient? XpreSole® Connie & Cody, made from recycled coffee grounds, make walking a breeze with their lightweight design and perfect fit. These shoes are so light and flexible, providing supreme comfort and effortless movement.

Even with heavyweight coffee materials, we ensure you feel as light as a feather when wearing them. Common materials used in mainstream white shoes are typically canvas, which tend to be heavier and prone to wear and yellowing over time. 

Compared to typical shoes on the market, each foot weighing approximately 200 grams. Want to experience the feeling of “barefoot comfort”? Just put them on, and you’ll understand. Whether you’re out for a stroll or a brisk run, you’ll feel like you’re walking on air.

Our Eco-EVA outsole, infused with upcycled coffee grounds, offers exceptional flexibility. This unique composition ensures that the shoes move seamlessly with your feet, providing effortless comfort and support whether you’re walking, running, or engaging in various activities.

The unique composition of coffee grounds within the shoe material allows for enhanced flexibility, ensuring that the shoes move effortlessly with your feet as you walk, run, or engage in various activities.

Partnering with social enterprises, we recycle discarded coffee grounds to create shoes. Every component incorporates coffee grounds, reducing two-thirds of the carbon footprint by replacing petroleum-based materials. Moreover, utilizing the tiny pores of coffee effectively absorbs odorous substances and harnesses its deodorizing and antibacterial properties. Thus, we craft a pair of not only comfortable but also environmentally friendly functional sneakers.
