As the weather starts to get nicer and nicer, it’s hard not to plan on spending time outdoors. A great way to enjoy the sunshine while in quarantine is to go for a nice, long run. Thankfully, Allbirds is on the same page. Today, they’re launching their newest silhouette, a running shoe called the Dasher. Scouted is already a fan of their Mizzle sneakers and Tree Breezer flats, so this launch is especially exciting for us.
The Dasher is crafted from a eucalyptus and merino wool upper with a sole made from sugarcane. The brand worked with over 50 athletes to perfect the shoe, biomechanically testing for stability and cushioning. It comes in four colors at launch: Geyser, Cyclone, Flame, and Thunder. They come in half sizes, as well, to make sure you get the right fit for your run. Think of these as a more supportive, structured version of their original Wool Runners.
Allbirds is also showcasing their commitment to sustainability outside of the materials in the shoe. They recently announced a Carbon Footprint initiative to help keep track of their carbon outputs. The Dasher is 9KG of carbon emissions per shoe, which is offset to zero by the Allbirds Carbon Fund.
