Durabilité - The Mercer Brand

Our Mission

Great design and sustainable materials shouldn't be a trade-off. That's why everything we make, from footwear to apparel, is built on plant-based, recycled, and organic content wherever possible.

Our Re-Run line pushes this further, using innovative materials like pineapple, cactus, and grape leather, alongside recycled PU and recycled suede.

When we do use real leather, we source only from suppliers who meet the highest industry standards. Why? Because sustainability is nuanced — and biodegradable, responsibly sourced leather has a place in that story.

Grape Leather

Grape leather gives wine industry waste a second life. Working with Italian winemakers, we transform leftover skins, stems, and seeds into a vegan material worth wearing.

Cactus Leather

We partner with Desserto to bring cactus leather into our materials mix — a highly sustainable, plant-based alternative that doesn't compromise on quality or looks.

Recycled PU

Recycled PU is a versatile synthetic — durable, flexible, and resilient, with a smooth or textured finish. All the performance, with a smaller footprint.

Recycled Leather

All the softness of traditional suede, none of the waste. Our recycled suede is crafted from reclaimed fibers, with the same luxurious look and feel — and a lot less impact.

Built from the ground up

We don't just think about what a shoe looks like. We think about every layer, every component, every material. From the recycled mesh upper to the sugarcane and bamboo midsole, every part has a reason to be there. No detail too small, no material chosen by accident.
