Earth Day on April 22, celebrates worldwide support for environmental issues. It was first celebrated in 1970, and is observed in more than 192 countries. This year we want to shine the spotlight on a company which not only focuses on environmental issues, like we do at Olivella®, but has also created a new technology based on re-connecting us to the Earth.
Every pair of Juil shoes or sandals has a series of “copper dots” on the bottoms, which they created to offer the wearer a connection with the earth beneath their feet. As they mention on their website at www.juil.com :
“Well, to put it simply, studies have shown that maintaining a direct connection between your body and the Earth’s surface can be beneficial to your health. Wearing Juil’s allows for that connection. Connecting you to the power of the earth to balance the weight of the world on your shoulders.”
And the shoes are beautiful, add that to the fact that they are made with amazing leather. We road tested their Flat Black shoes and they are extremely comfortable, take no time to break in and feel like a second skin. And even beyond the construction of the shoe, we love the packaging. Each pair arrives in the most modern looking drawer-like shoe box. It is a simple detail but really stands out from the typical shoe box and also allows you to up-cycle the box for keepsakes or your favorite Olivella creams 🙂
We recommend in time for Earth Day this year, get yourself a pair of Juil shoes and in partnership with us, they are offering all Olivella customers the following discount code for 10% off all Juil shoes starting today through March 30th with coupon code:
