HERALBONY, a brand operated by HERALBONY Co., Ltd., announces the launch of a special collaboration sandal featuring artist marina's artwork 'maru-mm2024' with indosole, a pioneering sustainable footwear brand from Indonesia. The sandals will be available in advance at HERALBONY LABORATORY GINZA starting Friday, July 17.
indosole transforms discarded tires into durable soles using proprietary technology, creating circular products that address environmental challenges. HERALBONY, committed to responsible manufacturing and environmental stewardship, shares this philosophy. This collaboration unites both brands' values, combining marina's dynamic, flowing artwork with lightweight, summery beach sandals to create a product that adds color to everyday life.

Collaboration Background
Founded in 2009 in Bali, Indonesia, indosole is a B Corp-certified footwear brand. It repurposes waste tires into high-durability soles using unique technology, tackling serious environmental issues while promoting circular production. The brand also emphasizes transparent operations, ethical manufacturing, and community contributions, operating the 'Community Assist' scholarship program. A portion of each sandal sold is donated to support education for children in Indonesia.
HERALBONY received the international 'B Corporation™' (B Corp) certification in February 2026, awarded to companies committed to positive social and environmental impact. The certification particularly recognized HERALBONY’s long-term collaborative approach with stakeholders and partner companies, rooted in its 'artist-first' philosophy since inception. This shared vision of responsible manufacturing—without burdening manufacturers or the natural environment—enabled the collaboration.

HERALBONY’s Commitment to Responsible Manufacturing
In February 2026, HERALBONY received the international B Corp certification, awarded by the U.S.-based nonprofit B Lab to companies achieving over 80 points out of 200 in social and environmental performance across five areas: community, employees, customers, governance, and environment.
Since its founding, HERALBONY has maintained a strict 'artist-first' policy, with dedicated staff building direct relationships with each contracted artist, sharing project intentions, and obtaining consent before launching works. This approach was highly evaluated, particularly in the 'community' category, contributing to the B Corp certification.
Going forward, HERALBONY aims to further strengthen its environmental initiatives, reducing environmental impact through collaboration with all stakeholders—material sourcing, manufacturing, logistics—under its 'Responsible Manufacturing Declaration.' The company will continue pursuing better product creation.
