Turning waste into sneakers GEN3 Orange is a new approach of sneaker making. Instead of animal skin and heavy chemicals, natural and recycled components are used to craft sneakers that are both respectful of animal life and the environment. Vegan Credentials Our GEN3 are proudly accredited VEGAN by PETA.
