Company overview
Rens is a globally renowned fashion startup based in Finland, founded by Vietnamese founders. In 2019, Rens launched the World’s 1st Waterproof Sneakers made from Coffee & Plastic Waste. The launch was a huge success; it became the all-time most successful fashion crowdfunding campaign in the Nordics, selling half a million EUR worth of sneakers, in 1.5 months, to customers in over 100 countries. The founders of Rens are the first Vietnamese entrepreneurs to be featured in the Top 30 Under 30 of both Forbes Vietnam and Forbes Europe.
At Rens, we’re building a new footwear generation made from the world’s most advanced technologies and sustainable materials. Like all of us living in the era of fast-fashion, we too are frustrated with the insane amount of waste produced by the fashion industry. We believe that by combining sustainable materials with technology and style, we can create the world’s best sneaker, without wasting precious resources from Mother Nature
