At Dandelie, we create footwear, clothing, and accessories that feel as good to wear as they do to own, because true sustainability means caring for what we make and for those who make it.
Slow Fashion at the core
At Dandelie, we believe fashion should be timeless, not disposable. Instead of chasing trends, we embrace the Slow Fashion Movement. Slow fashion values sustainable materials for clothing, ethical production, and mindful shopping. When it comes to fast fashion vs slow fashion, fast fashion is based on mass production and short lived trends. Even though fast fashion items may be cheaper at first, they come at a high cost to our planet. We believe in creating high quality products that are not only beautiful and comfortable but also have a positive impact on people and the environment.
Our boots are made to last
Dandelie boots are crafted from durable, high quality leather and designed to last for years, which means less waste and a smaller environmental footprint. Each pair is made using Goodyear welt stitching, a method that ensures longevity and allows you to replace the soles when they wear out. The leather itself is a byproduct of the meat industry, given a second life as something beautiful. With a little care, your Dandelie boots will carry you for years and prove that style, self expression, and sustainability belong together.
Partners who share our values
We also partner with makers who share our commitment to sustainability and craftsmanship. For example, we collaborate with an Afghan family, paying them upfront to handcraft authentic Afghan coats. Each coat sold directly supports families and strengthens local communities. At Tiggy by Cuddington, tanneries follow strict guidelines to reduce environmental impact. These partnerships reflect our belief that fashion is not just about products, but about people and meaningful connections.
