Paving the way to net-zero

With the introduction of the Green Silence in 2010, we set out to create a racing flat that pushed performance and sustainability to a new level – and it delivered!  

The Green Silence developed a devoted following over the years for its earth-first innovation and its lightweight, connected feel. Its legacy lives on in the Green Silence Ghost 15, which features the most recycled material by weight of any shoe in our line.
