comfortable with Brazilian soul & original design
Wearing TAYGRA, you will be
amazed by the suppleness of these incomparable shoes,
their comfort and lightness, as well as by the diversity
of its models, in very various and warm colours. Taygras
is urban & sportive footwear, & cab ne usde for
the beach, exits, indoors-sports, martial arts, dance
& Capoeira.
A feeling of confort as in
slippers... A lightness as if you were barefoot... A
reinforced sensitivity of feet...
The soles have a particular
form which makes them nonskid on any surfaces! Some use
it even for the surfing, canyoning, piloting, for hurt
feet... each one his reasons, TAYGRA is a shoe for
everyone!
The sport professionals will
appreciate it as shoe of relaxation of the foot, before
and after the practice of their specialised sports (which
will require a type of technical shoe), as well as for
format and weight that is easy to transport. People
suffering from their feet will find in TAYGRA a
suppleness adapted to their disability, the shoe does not
oppress the foot and it won't hurt or be unconvenient. Other
detail: they can be washed in machine, at 30 °C.
Avoid drier.
Take care: the new anatomic
sole must absolutely be hand-washed or with cold water in
the washing machine because it would melt!
We practice a
responsible and fair trade policy (pay shoes 20 % more
than market price for better wages in the factory),
aiming at the development of local economy, because
TAYGRA makes work many families directly and indirectly
(with some tasks such as the manufacture of soles,
packing cardboards or beach bags).
Environment is
responsibility of all. TAYGRA grows conscious and anxious
for environment, since the time as environment wasn't yet
fashion and commercial argument. TAYGRA offers shoes
Recycling of the
offcuts
|
TAYGRA
uses 100 % recyclable materials, offcuts are
recycled locally by the collectors of
"waste" who contribute to the cleaning
of the city while earning a worthy wage allowing
them to hope for a social evolution. These
materials are re-used to fabricate soles for
sandals, to fill eiderdown, fuzz and dolls...
We use an
odorless glue based on water, new on the market,
without toxicity for man nor for environment. Requiring
more time to dry, not enough industries opt for
this economically less profitable choice.
TAYGRA launches an
anatomic sole in ecological EVA, 100 %
recyclable, with orthopedic memo. An ecological
innovation for your comfort and good for the
planet.
Packing cardboards
or bags of beach used by TAYGRA is accomplished
based on recycled materials.
We innovate by
launching for the first time on the market the
use of "Canvas from the Rainforest", an
organic leather coming from environmental
reserves in South af Amazonia. The use of this
material contributes to the improvement of life
and to the maintaining of habitants, the
Seringueiros, who are necessary for the
surveillance of these fragile areas and in the
grip of the economic interests of lumbering
industry.
TAYGRA launches and
services the environmental " CURUPIRA "
project, in collaboration with SIMPI (small &
micro-companies trade union), aimed to the
reforestation of small plots of pasture in the
south of the Amazon. The aim is to create new
forests of native trees, to introduce the
reforestation as a source of profit and so to
allow to reverse the destructive tendency of the
lung of the planet, while allowing to the small
farmers to get a worthy wage to take care of the
planting.
