Ocean Sole, in the USA, is based in Ponte Vedra, Florida.

They have a Studio/shop and distribution warehouse there, so you can go and see all of their wonderful products, but if you own a retail outlet, you can also order in larger quantities at wholesale prices.

So… what is Ocean Sole? Who are they?

Let me start with some simple facts:

  • They are a charity.
  • The product is made in Kenya, by Kenyan people that might otherwise have no job or income.
  • They recover Flip-Flops, Styrofoam and wire from the beaches in Kenya.
  • They turn that waste recovered from the ocean into artistic creations (mostly animals)
  • They employ about 200 Kenyans
  • The income that those 200 Kenyans receive feeds and shelters about 2,000 people (10 people per pay check)
