This Celebrity-Beloved Footwear Brand Just Collab’d With Marie Kondo on Sneakers That Will Absolutely Spark Joy
It seems that very few things spark more joy than a Cariuma sneaker launch. The Brazilian footwear brand beloved by celebrities like Helen Mirren, Ashton Kutcher, Pete Davidson, and Robert Downey Jr. continues to make a splash every single time it launches something new—and now is no exception.
The sustainable footwear brand just partnered with the organization Queen Marie Kondo on its brand-new Cariuma x KonMari collection. Now, the brand's ever-popular OCA Low Sneakers ($89) come in four adorable new colors and prints (yes, prints!) guaranteed to spark joy wherever you go, from your head to your toes.
Available sizes: 5-13, in half sizes
A pretty pale rose hue with white stars packs a pretty punch no matter what you wear ’em with.
Colors: 4
Materials: organic cotton canvas, mamona-based cork insoles, natural rubber, recycled plastic
Pros:
- Made from sustainable, ethically sourced materials
- Comfortable
- Supportive
- No break-in period
- Affordable
- Two trees planted with every purchase
Cons:
- New colors/sizes tend to sell out quickly
Whether you’ve fully embraced Kondo's KonMari method completely or are still warming up to the idea of basic decluttering (nothing wrong with that!), these four new sneakers are worth finding a place in your closet. The collection is designed to help us all embrace what brings us joy and think about a happier, more fulfilled existence—and to look beyond just tidying up, but to encourage us to take small steps toward a life of harmony.
Aside from being cute and versatile, they’re designed with natural and sustainably sourced materials for both ultimate comfort and minimal environmental impact, thanks to a blend of organic and recycled materials. Plus, Cariuma plants two trees in the Brazilian rainforest every time someone makes a purchase. Talk about a way to consider our footprint.
And they feel amazing to wear. Every pair of OCA Lows is designed in soft, breathable organic cotton canvas, which takes virtually zero time to break in. (Gotta love comfortable sneakers right out of the box.) The mamona-oil cork insole (a plant-based alternative to petroleum) molds to your foot’s unique shape, so you get a one-of-a-kind feel as you continue wearing them. The outsoles are designed in slip-resistant natural rubber, and even the laces are made from recycled plastics and organic cotton.
But the star of the Cariuma x KonMari collab is obviously aesthetic. Available in four bright patterns, they’re a refreshingly airy twist on fall’s normally darker colors. There’s a solid light cream (Light Sand) for minimalists who prefer a "goes-with-everything" style they can dress up or down. And for those who like something a little snazzier, there's a delicate star print in three pretty shades: dusty pink with white stars (Marie Kondo Rose), light gray with black stars (Marie Kondo Light Grey), and white with navy stars (Marie Kondo Off White). Each pair also features Kondo’s signature embroidered on one side.
The four colors in the new Marie Kondo collection are available now—but don’t wait to snag your faves, because the brand’s sneakers tend to sell out quicker than you can say, “That sparks joy.” Scroll to see all four new colors in the Cariuma x KonMari collection in all their glory.
Available sizes: 5-13, in half sizes
A hue that’s almost sleek white but just a little less blinding, and finished with a starry navy pattern to boot. This is the print that pairs effortlessly with dark skinny jeans and a slouchy tee.
Materials: organic cotton canvas, mamona-based cork insoles, natural rubber, recycled plastic
Available sizes: 5-13, in half sizes
Gray goes with everything—and we do mean everything. Pair ’em with jeans, leggings, dresses, maxi skirts, the sky’s pretty much the limit.
Materials: organic cotton canvas, mamona-based cork insoles, natural rubber, recycled plastic
Available sizes: 5-13, in half sizes
The perfect off-white sneakers? Found ’em. Once you add these to your wardrobe, you’ll be hard-pressed to want to take them off. They go with every ’fit you can think of.
