SAYE is a conscious retro-sneaker brand rooted in timeless design, ethical production, and an unwavering commitment to quality and durability.

Founded in 2018 in Poblenou, Barcelona, our mission is to create footwear that respects both people and the planet — without compromising on craftsmanship or style. Our sneakers are made in ethical factories in Portugal and Spain, using certified materials, including responsibly sourced leather, organic cotton, and recycled or bio-based components.

We believe that quality is sustainability: that means using materials that not only reduce environmental impact, but also extend the life of every product. Our goal is to break the cycle of fast fashion by offering sneakers that are built to be worn longer, loved more, and replaced less.

We’re constantly exploring innovative materials that reduce waste, avoid harmful chemicals, and promote circularity — without compromising on quality or comfort.

WALK THE TALK is our guiding philosophy which emphasizes the importance of aligning actions with words and consistently living with intention, both in brand behavior and in consumer choices.

Since 2018, SAYE has planted over 325,000 trees worldwide, delivering on its promise to plant two trees for every pair sold. Projects span Zambia, India, Australia, the Amazon, and more, and are facilitated through partnerships with NGOs and organizations like Veritree and One Tree Planted.

Starting in June 2024, SAYE expanded its impact model to marine environments. Through a partnership with Veritree and Ocean Wise, SAYE now plants one kelp strand in the Pacific coast regions of British Columbia, Canada (and also Chile) for each purchase of the M89 Ground model. This initiative supports underwater biodiversity and carbon sequestration.
