EVOLV is constantly working towards being as conscientious and sustainable towards the environment as possible. We realize that due to the nature of manufacturing we can never be fully green, but we are endeavoring to do our best in minimizing harm to the environment.

   With this goal in mind, EVOLV and TRAX Rubber have developed eco-TRAX, a recycled content high friction rubber compound and started using it on products beginning Fall 2008, making EVOLV the first climbing shoe company to use a more environmentally friendly rubber on climbing shoes.

   The technology comes from decomposing selective pre & post consumer rubber waste and then reprocessing it to make a useable compound. Currently, 30% of the eco-TRAX compound used on select parts of outsoles is recycled material, however we plan to use a higher recycled percent compound on other applications that don't require maximum friction.
