About Don Zapas
At Don Zapas we work on sustainable social change, we passionately believe in travel, naps, good food, great friends, long talks, broadened horizons and the spirit of adventure.
(We are also 100% sure that the world would be a better place
(if everyone had access to a comfortable pair of shoes)
WE ARE NOT A CHARITY, WE ARE THE TRANSFORMATION OF THE COMMUNITY THAT EMPOWERS
Don Zapas is breaking the cycle of poverty through the creation of sustainable employment.
Our workers are now empowered to earn a stable, healthy income through decent work (what we call a "prosperity wage").
This is the foundation for a brighter future, built on a handout, not a handout.

A GLOBAL APPROACH TO ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT, SOCIAL IMPACT AND CONSERVATION
At Don Zapas we sell high quality, comfortable and above all durable products. We don't want shoes to break after 10 days of use. We believe that shoes should be long-lasting products in order to contribute to responsible consumption.
