Shopping ethically no longer means hessian tie-dyes and flimsy materials.

Sustainability is not just a buzzword, it’s a movement that’s here to stay in the fashion industry. And Thaely, the Indian sneaker brand that just made its highly anticipated debut in Australia with the Y2K Pro range, is leading the charge.

Born in India, at the hands of a young visionary Ashay Bhave, Thaely is a story of equal parts innovation and creativity that’s capturing the attention of the fashion and enviro-tech enthusiasts alike worldwide. Most notably,  their revolutionary ThaelyTex leather replacement, made entirely out of waste plastic bags, is a gamechanger. It’s the Impossible Burger of the the footwear world – you won’t know the difference between it and the “real” thing.

The Y2K Pros will feature Aged Beige, an exclusively designed colourway as a tribute to Australian sneaker fans. But that’s not all, the remaining colourways are a continuation of Thaely’s lineage of retro and nature-inspired themes that are sure to turn heads. Thaely has officially made its Australian debut online via www.thaely.com.au, with the first drop rolling out fast as the sneakerheads make their move.
