Test our new circular shoes!

Original language : French

Our world is changing and evolving, today more than ever, we must commit to strong causes, especially the environment. At Quechua, this is a priority and our teams are working on developing products that align closely with these values. It's a painstaking task, especially on our scale, but we are determined to do it right.

In this perspective, our nature hiking teams have reimagined one of our flagship shoes: the NH100. This pair, sold on a large scale, could become a real pivot to reduce our emissions. Therefore, we have decided to make it circular: once the pair is used, it will need to be returned to the store where it will then be crushed to become a new product thanks to a mono-material design allowing it to be remolded into plastic pellets!

And now? It's your turn to play.

We need testers to validate the feasibility of this transformation process. Therefore, we offer to send you a pair of shoes, let you keep them for a few months to test and wear them, and then you will need to return them. For this, we will provide you with everything needed to prepare the package, you will just have to drop it off.

Our world is changing and evolving, today more than ever, we must commit to strong causes and in particular the environment. At Quechua, this is a priority and our teams are working to develop products that are as close as possible to these values. This is tedious work, especially on our scale, but we want to do it well.

With this in mind, our nature hiking teams have redesigned one of our flagship shoes: the NH100. This pair, sold on a large scale, could become a real pivot for reducing our emissions. We have therefore decided to make it circular: once the pair is used, it will have to be brought back to the store where it will be crushed to become a new product thanks to a single-material design allowing it to be recast into plastic granules!

And now? It's your turn.

We need testers to validate the feasibility of this transformation method. We therefore propose to send you a pair of shoes, leave them for a few months so that you can test them and wear them out, then you will have to send them back. To do this, we will provide you with everything necessary to prepare the package, you will only have to drop it off.


Objective :

Our test aims to verify the quality of the product as well as the feasibility of the recycling circuit.

Practical information (date, location, etc.):

The test will take place at your home: we will send you the pair at the beginning of February and you will test it regularly in the conditions that suit you.

Other information:
