About Tantä Rainwear

Based in Spain, Tantä Rainwear makes mostly vegan weatherproof outerwear, although they do have a nice selection of vegan rubber rain boots as well. Their boots are all OEKO-TEX Certified, PETA-approved vegan, made in Spain with fair labour, and are only available within Europe.

Are Tantä Rainwear boots waterproof?

Yes - all of their boots are 100% waterproof, not just water-resistant.

What materials are used to make Tantä's rubber boots?

Within each shoe's description on the Tantä Rainwear website it will give a detailed breakdown of the materials used to make that boot. For example, their Druppel model lists the following materials:
- Outer layer: 100% PVC
- Lining: 100% polyester
- Sole: 100% PVC
- Matching elastic on the sides
- Textile lining

Are Tantä Rainwear's boots eco-friendly/sustainable?

There's nothing particularly sustainable about Tantä's rubber rain boots, as they don't use any natural materials or recycled materials. It is worth mentioning however, that their boots are all OEKO-TEX certified. OEKO-TEX is an independent test and certification system for textile products that commits to controlling and limiting the use of chemical products much beyond applicable national and international standards.

Does production of their vegan rain boots create a lot of CO2 emissions?

From a carbon footprint standpoint, it's difficult to asses the impact that Tantä Rainwear has, and what they do to remediate it. Tantä does not currently provide data as to their environmental impact or remediation efforts, so it's difficult to accurately asses them in these areas.

Does Tantä use ‘green’ shipping methods?

It's unclear from their website if they use net-zero or negative emissions shipping partners, either domestically or internationally. We’ve asked them for clarification, and are currently awaiting reply.

Does Tantä use eco-friendly packaging?

We've reached out to the Tantä Rainwear team to get further details on this, and are awaiting reply.

Are their rain boots recyclable?

We've reached out to the Tantä Rainwear team to get further details on this, and are awaiting reply.

How should I dispose of my old Tantä rain boots?

We’ve asked their team if they currently have, or are developing, a shoe recycling program, and are awaiting reply. In the meantime, Get it Vegan recommends either trying to have them repaired, donating them to someone in need, or taking them to a clothing recycling depot (if available in your city), which can strip them down to their recyclable components.

What stores can I buy Tantä rubber boots from?

Tantä rrubber rain boots can be purchased from their website, and can be shipped within Europe only. We've asked them if they have plans to work with retailers, and are currently awaiting reply.

Do their boots ever go on sale?

We haven’t noticed any sales for Tantä rain boots when visiting their site and perusing their social channels.

Where are their rain boots made?

Tantä designs and produces their rubber rain boots in Spain.

Are their rain boots made with fair labour?

Yes! Tantä rain boots are made in Spain, which means their labourers are protected by the stringent labour laws of the European Union, which also include strong health and safety regulations.

Does Tantä Rainwear promote ‘slow fashion’ or a ‘circular economy’?

Tantä gets mixed reviews from us with regard to their promotion/inclusion of circular economy principles. In the positive column, they employ fair labour, and their products meet OEKO-TEX chemical use standards. On the other hand, they don't seem to use any natural, organic, or recycled materials, make any mention of using eco-friendly packaging, contribute to conservation efforts charitably, or promote any efforts to offset their carbon emissions.

Is Tantä a charitable company?

We’ve asked their team about any charitable initiatives they're involved with (if any), and are currently awaiting reply.

Is Tantä Rainwear an ethically vegan brand?

It's tough to say, but it's doubtful. On one side, they say, "All of our products are approved by PETA. We are proud to align with your cause throughout our entire collection." But on the other hand, one of their most recent blog posts talks about one of their associates starting a cheese hub in Spain. So who knows.

Tantä Footwear Range

Tantä Rainwear makes a small line of women's-sized vegan rubber rain boots. Their styles are timeless, with their rain boots resembling a modernized take on the Chelsea boot. They come in a variety of monochromatic colours, although some of their models have different coloured soles. They make low and above the ankle rain boots, and they're sold at a mid-range price point.
