Gen1 made the edit because... Since we launched the MoEa brand last summer they have been an instant success. Incredibly comfortable, durable, stylish and easily worn be it urban commutes or weekend strolls the Gen1 is fabulous (we love the hidden platform for extra height). Plus you get to spread the word that they're made from grapes and recycled orange skin. Bravo! These trainers have been beautifully made in Portugal. Good to know: Vegan (they actually are), made with recycled materials, made fairly and Low carbon.
