Sanuk has partnered with climate impact non-profit Protect Our Winters to release a limited-edition cold weather shoe capsule collection. Sanuk also made a donation of $25,000 to Protect Our Winters as part of their collaboration.
With a design inspired by puffy winter jackets, the collection includes two styles, a boot and a slip-on shoe, crafted from low impact materials. Two of the boot options include a men’s and women’s version of the Puffy Chiller Mid x POW, an ankle-length boot. The men’s version incorporates navy while the women’s includes light blue and pink; they both feature a mountain illustration and retail for $90.
Another boot option is the $100 unisex Puffy Chiller Mid Sl x POW, which features a snowflake design. Additionally, the collection includes the $85 unisex style known as the Puffy Chiller Low Sl x POW, which is a slip-on style with a striped ombré design on the upper; Sanuk calls the colorway Northern Sunset. With environmental impact in mind, Sanuk makes use of recycled polyester and sugarcane EVA to craft the shoes.

Notably, Sanuk was recently sold from Deckers Brand, home of Hoka and Ugg, to Canadian active company Lolë Brands.
“We think there are a lot of common themes between our two brands, from sustainability to creativity to the importance and connection to community,” Lolë Brands CEO Todd Steele told FN. “We also think Sanuk can benefit from our global perspective since a large part of our business is done outside of the U.S.”
