Juntos is an eco-conscious footwear brand that stands out for its commitment to sustainability and collective action. The brand, whose name translates to 'together' in Spanish, emphasizes the power of small changes made collectively to bring about significant shifts toward a sustainable future.

Inspired by the Ecuadorian street shoe, Juntos offers slip-on and lace-up options for both men and women, reimagining the convenience and comfort of everyday footwear using materials that are abundant in the Ecuadorian landscape. The eco-conscious footwear brand employs sustainable materials like Hyacaya Alpaca fleece for the upper, sock liner, and insole. This fleece, sourced from a single sustainable ranch in the Ecuadorian Andes, is hypoallergenic and finer than human hair. Additionally, the insoles are made from coconut fiber, the shoe lining is rafted from banana tree fibers, and the midsole boasts sugarcane.
