Our Story
WHO IS BEHIND KUMI?
Sneakers & Travelling
We're Alexandra and Sergio, an international couple who decided to start our own project and dedicating ourselves to what we’re truly passionated about: sustainable fashion.
Despite being from two different parts of the world, we identify ourselves with the same interests: we are so lively– we love travelling, spending our time at the mountain or beach, discovering new places, trying new food – and we never miss the chance to wear a pair of comfortable and cool sneakers.
Therefore, we decided to create a project fitting our lifestyle and values:
· Respect and love for animals: we adopted a puppy that we love madly and we want to make sure animals are treated with the same dignity.
· Sustainable fashion industry: using vegan, sustainable and recycled materials with the goal of sustainable fashion in mind.
· Local economy support: reducing CO2 impact and creating bonds with national companies.
