2020: COVID-19 UPDATE
The circumstances arising from the pandemic are really challenging for us, our producing partners, our trusted retail stores and for each individual consumer around the world. We must now focus all resources towards finding creative solutions aiming to support people and the operations connected to our entire chain of activities. Our engagement outside our own industry will never be less important to us, however for the time being our external support will be paused and postponed until things change.
In the beginning of this crisis we were happy to be able to give extra support to 3 of the organizations whose work get even more important when yet another crisis strikes on top of an already exposed situation. Read more below.

At Vagabond Shoemakers we know that by trying our hardest and making shoes people love, we will also be able to contribute more to important initiatives that tirelessly aim to improve the lives of many. For 2019 our total support is SEK 2.420 000. The focus area health, environment/climate and young or exposed people around the world, each have one part of our dedicated funds. This is where our main resources are directed. Besides that, we also allocate 15% for unforeseen emergency situations and another 10% for local initiatives.

The pandemic is slowing things down. Although we cannot do all we would normally do, we are determined to let access stock be of use. Click to read more
This first week of March we are sending 1383 pairs of shoes to Human Bridge to support their important mission to supply both medical and other everyday necessities such as clothes and shoes for exposed areas, mainly in Eastern Europe and Africa.
This to follow up on November 2020 where 850 pairs were send. During that same time, 100 of our sample shoes were sold through Style it Forward @style_it_forward, a virtual pop up store initiative where the full revenue went to the Hunger Project @thehungerprojectse
These are trying times for everyone. Even more so for people and places where things are already tough. Click to read more
This especially concerns the refugee situation and places with poor medical care and lack of clean water. Therefore we are transferring EUR 55 000 to UNHCR, Doctors without borders and WaterAid. These are fantastic organizations (among others) are tirelessly making an effort using special skills. Thank you for all your contributions to keep people safe.
We gave your discount to someone else. Click to read more
Thanks to all of you who chose to purchase your Vagabond favorites this Black Friday weekend! That has resulted in a contribution for Humanium Metal of EUR 23.543. This will be used in their continuous efforts to create better and peaceful lives for people living in high violence areas.
Loza Foundation works for the vulnerable people in Europe, people living in inhuman conditions. To raise attention about these circumstances Cycle4Europe will be arranged for the first time
Starting in the beginning of September, this will be an event where the World Championship medalist Jonas Colting, among others, will cycle through some of Europe’s poorest countries for two weeks.
The 2 500 kilometer race will finish in Varberg, home of Vagabond Shoemakers. It was an easy decision to participate. “We have supported Loza before, they do an important job to raise awareness and contribute to improvements for exposed people in areas not too far away from us” says Anna Fahle Björcke at Vagabond. Alongside shoes, Varberg is famous for bikes and neighboring company Cycleurope is one of the other sponsors. “It is extra special to be able to do this together with other reputable companies also originating from Varberg.”
