At Matuse, we believe that quality and environmental responsibility go hand in hand. Every product we make is built to last—reducing waste, extending life cycles, and supporting a more sustainable future. From the materials we select to the methods we use, our process reflects a deep respect for the planet.
For this collaboration, we partnered with Lava Rubber, a brand devoted to giving new life to materials that would otherwise end up in landfills. By recycling old wetsuits, Lava Rubber transforms discarded neoprene and other wetsuit components into durable, eco-friendly rubber goods. Their mission is simple but powerful: turn waste into resource, creating innovative, sustainable solutions that benefit both people and the planet.
From there, Matuse x Lava Rubber joined forces with Island Slipper—the Hawaiian masters of handcrafted footwear. Since 1946, Island Slipper has produced its iconic slippers on Oahu, Hawaii, USA, honoring tradition, craftsmanship, and environmental stewardship. Their commitment to comfort, durability, and island-born design makes them the perfect partner for this project.
Together, this collaboration brings the best of upcycling, craftsmanship, and quality into one timeless product. Each pair represents sustainability in its highest form—proving that what’s good for the planet can also be exceptionally good for you.
