🌿 Ecosneaker: the Barbera revolution

In the heart of Biella, where artisan tradition meets innovation, brothers Stefano and Andrea Barbera have created a project that represents a true turning point in the world of fashion: Ecosneaker is born, a shoe made with algae and natural colors .

The goal? To combine aesthetics and sustainability, creating a product that's beautiful to wear but also good for the planet .

♻️ A sneaker made of sea and nature

Ecosneaker isn't just a shoe, it's a vision of the future. The material used, the fruit of research by the Barbera brothers, is made from seaweed and vegetable dyes , in a completely chemical-free process.
The “Vaisar” upper is breathable, purifying and antibacterial — natural qualities that derive from the marine and plant extracts used.
The result is a recyclable and environmentally friendly shoe, produced entirely in Italy, in the artisan workshop in Trivero.

🌊 Innovation and craftsmanship: a winning combination

Stefano and Andrea have combined the wisdom of the Biella artisan hands with scientific research and the materials of the future .
Production takes place in a closed circuit , without chemical waste: the algae are harvested, treated, and reintroduced into the production cycle. The colors are also derived from plant-based and natural pigments, completely eliminating the use of synthetic dyes.

👟 Made in Biella, designed for the world

Barbera Scarpe doesn't just want to produce footwear, but to tell a new idea of ​​fashion : one that comes from a local area and looks far ahead, promoting values ​​such as authenticity, respect and responsible innovation.
The Barbera laboratory thus becomes a symbol of the Italian artisanal rebirth , a place where creativity merges with research, and where sustainability is not a trend but a mission.

🌱 Barbera's vision

“We started with a simple idea: to make beautiful, comfortable shoes that do good,” say the Barbera brothers.
“For us, sustainability isn't marketing, but a concrete way of doing business.”

With Ecosneaker, Barbera Scarpe presents itself as a pioneer of ethical and conscious fashion , capable of inspiring new generations of artisans and consumers towards a cleaner, more transparent and authentic future.
