FW20 OCEANS
Oceans
Waste Free Oceans is an NGO based in Brussels dedicated to ridding the world’s oceans of the rubbish that humans have created and dumped over the past several decades.
They work to reduce, recycle and reuse marine waste by connecting local fishermen, recyclers, manufacturers and policy makers.
Waste Free Oceans has ocean, sea and river cleaning projects in the Azores Islands, Dominican Republic, Hong Kong, the Black Sea and the Danube River.
Since the launch of the Roland Collection, the model has been associated with this ocean cleanup project, with a portion of the proceeds from each sneaker purchase going directly to the NGO.
As a result of this collaboration, more than 27.000kg of plastic has been collected from the oceans.
