Jason Momoa Launches Sustainable Vegan Sneakers Made from Algae
Being sustainable just got even sexier, with Aquaman heartthrob Jason Momoa launching a line of vegan sneakers!
Climbing apparel brand SoILL has partnered with Jason Momoa to launch two limited-edition vegan sneakers made from algae. The stylish sneaks are launched in partnership with Bloom, a company on a mission to maintain healthy ecosystems and reduce water pollution by turning harmful algae bloom into sustainable materials.
Jason Mamoa has long been a passionate voice raising awareness about plastic pollution and waste reduction and has his own plastic-free water company, Mananalu. The sustainable Unity Purple and Yaya Lavender kicks are part of the ILL x On the Roam collection and feature an organic cotton upper, Bloom algae insoles, and biodegradable outsoles.
Melissa has been vegan since 2017 and is a self-proclaimed pizza and doughnut enthusiast. A public relations executive by day—when she’s not scouring New York City and beyond for the next great vegan food and beauty finds—she donates her time to supporting animal rescues, traveling, and spoiling her cat, Waffles.
Tikkā is a northern Indian dish involving marinated protein or vegetables cooked in a tandoor, or clay oven. My version is made with marinated tofu baked on skewers in a conventional oven to mimic the traditional cooking vessel, which adds a char and smokiness to the dish. Using smoked paprika further pays tribute to the traditional cooking technique. This tikkā is best served hot with cooling mint chutneys and is delicious in lettuce wraps as well. For lettuce wraps, dice the tofu and vegetables into smaller pieces after cooking and fill the lettuce leaves just before serving.
The vegan singer appeared on the latest episode of Hot Ones, where she enjoyed vegan chicken from popular brand Daring and talked about her newest album, Special.
