Plant A Tree
With each purchase of Gumbies flip-flops, a mangrove tree is planted in Mozambique, Madagascar or Kenya. Mangrove trees enrich the environment due to their ability to store up to 4 times more carbon than other trees.

Recovering Ocean Plastic
Through our partnership with Empower AS, your purchase of a Gumbies Slipper recovers the equivalent of 80 bottles worth of plastics from ocean shorelines and riverbanks.
