Manifesto

STRETS is a Portuguese brand of light, comfortable and sustainable footwear.

Handcrafted in Spain using the typical “alpargata" technique, STRETS are made in natural linen and biodegradable rope.

This lightweight and comfortable footwear has a fascinating origin dating back thousands of years, and knowing its history can add a new level of appreciation to your favorite pair of alpercatas.

Its differentiated design and sustainable fabrics make STRETS the perfect fit for a smooth walking experience, while helping to preserve the world we live in.

The Concept

We believe that people are run, not only by their thoughts and beliefs, but by their everyday mood. Whether we like it or not, our mood plays a huge role in our daily lives. Many times, it's the one calling the shots. That's why we have to take care of it. We have to adapt to the mood of each day. We have to wear it.

That's what STRETS is. A shoe that meets your feelings. A shoe that meets your mood. Each model has its own moodboard and its own presentation.

One might think that STRETS were designed for your feet. But in reality, they were designed to fit your mood. Now walk it!
