All-day comfort, Purpose driven and Positive Impact on People and Planet
oUR MISSION
WE MAKE BETTER SNEAKERS
Our mission is to create authentic, timeless designs while delivering exceptional value to our customers. Wayz sneakers are sourced and crafted locally with high quality materials, the best partners, ethical practices and transparency.
Comfort isn’t an extra. It’s the heart of every Wayz sneaker. A recycled rubber outsole for steady support, breathable linings to keep your feet balanced and dry, and a recycled-latex insole that cushions every step—hour after hour. All-day comfort.
DURABILITY
Wayz sneakers are made to last. Anti-abrasion rubber outsoles, glued and stitched for strength, pair with thick, high-quality leather uppers that age with character. Every detail is chosen for endurance, so your sneakers keep going—day after day.
REPAIRABILITY
Wayz are made for years, not seasons. When the miles add up, renew them—replace the outsole, fix the stitches, swap laces or insoles, and give your pair a true second life. With Wayz 2nd Life or your local cobbler, the journey goes on.
SUSTAINABLE MATERIALS
Every pair of Wayz begins with responsible choices. Recycled rubber outsoles, vegetable-tanned leather, recycled-latex insoles, and uppers made from sea-sourced recycled polyester—materials chosen to tread lighter and give waste a new purpose.
MADE IN PORTUGAL
Every pair of Wayz is crafted close to home. Our entire supply chain lies within 70 km of Porto, supporting local artisans and communities while keeping our environmental footprint low. Buy local and better products!
TRANSPARENCY
At Wayz, nothing is hidden. We share every detail of our products and production process because we believe informed customers make better choices. Shop consciously!

I’m a fanboy! I have been since I met Pedro in Porto and we spoke for about an hour a couple of years back. The best shoes ever and a business with real heart. Wouldn’t get my shoes anywhere else 🙂. Love the new styles!
Wayz are the best sneakers I ever had, full leather, inside and outside with a sole that can be replaced. I will definitely purchase again if the release new collections.
This is my third pair, i absolutely love them! I also ordered new soles and laces so I can repair my older pair, love this service!! The fit (not a misfit at all;)) is comfortable, snug and soft.

CHOOSE YOUR WAYZ
Rooted in authenticity and shaped by diversity, every Wayz sneaker carries a character, a trait, a way of being we deeply admire. Pick your favorite model
Wayz are built to walk with you for many years. How many, it depends on how you take care of them. Crafted with strong materials and reinforced construction, they’re designed to endure daily life — not just a season. And when time leaves its marks, our repair options (new outsole, new insole, repair stitches, etc) help extend their journey even further.
HOW can i repair my Wayz?
Just bring them to us — we’ll take care of the rest. We examine each pair carefully and give you a fair, transparent budget before any repair begins. From new soles to fresh insoles and laces, our local partners craft everything to help your sneakers keep walking long after the first journey. If you prefer you can also buy the components from us and then take your pair to your local cobbler.
What is my size?
Choose the size you usually wear in sneakers. Our fits are true to size, steady and reliable. To be 100% sure of your decision, folow the measuring instructions of our Size Guide. If you’re between two numbers, go for the larger one — your feet deserve room to breathe and wander.
Are Wayz waterproof?
Wayz are not fully waterproof. They’re built to resist rain and keep your feet warm and dry — thick leathers, water repellent textiles, solid enough for everyday wear — but not meant for heavy rain or deep puddles.
ARE WAYZ COMFORTABLE AND BREATHABLE?
Yes — Wayz are designed to feel natural from the first step. Thanks to the hypoallergenic veg-tan leather lining and insoles, they’re very breathable, regulating temperature and wicking moisture. Your feet never get too warm or too cold, making them perfect for all-day wear and endless wandering.
How Do I clean my Wayz?
Cleaning your Wayz regularly is crucial for their longevity. Wayz cannot be washed on a washing machine. Please follow our care instructions Guide.
Can I Wear them all day long?
Absolutely. Wayz are built for all-day comfort. The recycled latex insole, covered with veg-tan leather, provides excellent support and cushioning, while the breathable materials and thoughtful construction keep your feet happy from the first step to the last.
