Given to Products That Meet Caleres’ Highest
Level of Sustainable Criteria
Caleres (NYSE: CAL), the market-leading portfolio of
consumer-driven footwear brands, today introduced the One Planet
Standard designation for products that meet or exceed 51% on its
Sustainable Footwear Index.
The One Planet Standard considers the sustainability of a
product across its entire lifecycle, including six key pillars:
sample reduction, materials, packaging, supplier Environmental
Social Governance (ESG) initiatives, brand philanthropy, and
end-of-life solutions. Each shoe is assessed and graded, start to
finish, with sustainability measures that require more effort and
investment receiving more points.
Approximately 75% of Caleres-owned products contain at least one
environmentally preferred material, and nearly 20% meet the
stringent criteria necessary to earn the One Planet Standard
designation. The company's goal is to continue developing and
innovating to increase the number of products that meet its highest
standard, ultimately establishing a new baseline for manufacturing
excellence.
Shoes that meet the One Planet Standard designation are
identified on Caleres brand websites with a One Planet Standard
icon to allow consumers to easily identify products that achieve
this high bar.
“The One Planet Standard is part of our ongoing ESG efforts and
something we’re very proud to introduce,” said Natelle Baddeley,
chief design and product officer for Caleres. “We take very
seriously our responsibility to create shoes that are not only
beautiful, fashionable, and comfortable but also lighter on the
planet. Making conscious choices about how we design, the materials
we use, and how we manufacture products is not just good for
business – it’s the right thing to do.”
“Today’s consumer is highly focused on sustainable products and
brands,” said Jennifer Olsen, chief marketing officer. “The One
Planet Standard designation will help the consumer quickly identify
these items within our portfolio. We always seek to make the
shopping experience easier, and this is yet another way we can help
our consumers make informed decisions while at the same time
deliver products they want.”
