PROFIT & PURPOSE

WORLD FORUM DISRUPT
BUILDING SUSTAINABLE PRODUCTS THAT
ARE LOVED BY CONSUMERS & GENERATE
LISTEN TO
THE VOICE OF
OUR
CONSUMER
The Neilson Company has tracked
consumer preferences for over 50 years.
For the first time the #1 global concern of
teens is Protecting the Environment. This
is a global trend – China, Europe and
North America.
CONSUMERS
ARE BUYING
BASED ON
VALUES
Consumers are becoming more purpose
driven. Two thirds of consumers globally
will buy or boycott a brand solely on it’s
position on social or environmental
issues.
FAST FASHION
IS BECOMING
OUT OF
FASHION
Consumers are learning that buying too
much product is creating more waste.
Burberry was recently caught burning
$200M of inventory. Followed by a 30%
drop in stock evaluation.
1/3

THERE WILL
BE MORE
PLASTIC
THAN FISH IN
OUR OCEANS
A MILLION PLASTIC BOTTLES ARE
BOUGHT AROUND THE WORLD EVERY
MINUTE.
90% OF THE
WORLD
BREATHES
UNSAFE AIR
350ppm is what is considered safe. We
passed 400ppm last year. The fashion
industry emissions are projected to
increase by 60% by 2030.
SUSTAINABLE
INNOVATION
IS NOT A NICE
TO HAVE IT’S
MANDATORY
“Brands that don’t make the world a
better place are meaningless.” –Jenna,
18
OUR RESPONSIBILITY
DEFINE NEW, INNOVATIVE, AND MORE
SUSTAINABLE PROCESSES THAT
CREATE LESS WASTE
BE MEANINGFUL. LISTEN TO THE VOICE OF OUR CONSUMER.

VAPOR MAX
CASE STUDY 1
FLYKNIT
Nike Flyknit technology was inspired by
feedback from runners seeking a shoe
with the snug (and virtually unnoticed) fit
of a sock. This unprecedented precision
maximizes performance while reducing
the material waste of traditional cut and
sew by an average of 60%. The
equivalent of six recycled
plastic bottles are used in
every pair of Flyknit shoes,
saving millions of pounds of
material from reaching landfills.
VAPORMAX
These sneakers combine two of the
most sustainable and most
innovative technologies to enhance
athletic performance, while helping
Mother Nature.
RENEW CANVAS

CONVERSE
RENEW
Incredible support in the
MakerSights study. Over 5000
consumers from 4 top markets.
Love it!
Like it
Neutral
Dislike it
Hate it
RENEW
DENIM
These sneakers were made from jeans
that were headed to landfill. By using
existing fabrics, the upper construction
uses 90% less water, 40% less carbon
and zero chemical dyes.
CASE STUDY 3
HALF THE IMPACT
BIG PICTURE
DOUBLE THE BUSINESS
WITH HALF THE FOOTPRINT
OUR GOAL
WE EVEN
RECYCLED
OUR WHQ
We took a dilapidated building in the
middle of Boston, we spent $15M
renovating. As a result, we have
transformed the North End.
PLASTIC &
STRAW
FREE WHQ
We changed all of the containers in the
marketplace to bio based plastic foot
containers that are composed.
WE USE 100%
BCI COTTON
By June of next year, Converse will only
be using cotton that is sustainable
harvested and certified by the Better
Cotton Initiative.
100%
RENEWABLE
ENERGY
All Converse buildings will be powered by
solar, wind or geothermal energy
North America = 2019
Western Europe = 2020
Asia Pacific = 2021
THANK YOU!
