What materials are used to make their sneakers?

Undo For Tomorrow's sneaker components are made of the following materials:
• Midsole: SmoothFoam ™
• Uppers: Water-repellent vegan suede made of recycled PET (plastic bottles)

• Outsoles: Made with discarded party balloons and tires
• Toe Cap: A stretchable material made from Amazon Rainforest rubber

Are their sneakers eco-friendly/sustainable?

From an environmentally-friendly materials standpoint, Undo For Tomorrow's skate shoes/sneakers could be considered quite eco-friendly (at least as far as suede-look footwear is concerned), as they incorporate mostly natural and/or recycled materials into their designs. These materials, while not perfect, are generally considered to be more environmentally friendly than animal-derived leathers (due to the inclusion of various toxic chemicals used in the tanning process, among other reasons). This is backed up by data from inside the fashion industry as well as outside of it. For the data, please see Collective Fashion Justice’s CIRCUMFAUNA initiative. In addition, the brand has this to say about their use of Amazonian natural rubber: "Our latex comes from 'Hevea brasiliensis - the natural rubber tree. It does not cause any harm to the forest itself or to the tree as long as we respect the limits it has to offer. The production of wild rubber, is supported by WWF, as one of the rainforest products that help underpin forest conservation."

Does production of thier sneakers create a lot of CO2 emissions?
