etnies footwear donates a portion of its sales to Trees for the Future, supporting the Forest Garden Approach — a powerful initiative where farmers plant thousands of trees to restore soil health & cultivate a diverse range of crops for sustenance & income.

Currently, these Forest Gardens are thriving across East & West Africa as part of the Great Green Wall project, an ambitious effort led by the African Union to curb desertification by planting a 4,815-mile stretch of trees along the Sahara’s southern border. Each Forest Garden not only captures carbon and promotes biodiversity but also contributes to reducing hunger and poverty in these communities.

Together, etnies customers & Trees for the Future are building a sustainable system to nourish communities, strengthen local economies & support a healthier planet. Since partnering with Trees for the Future, etnies has planted over 2 million trees — a milestone made possible with your support.
