MEET MAREN OG ZARAH

What do you do when you discover that millions of forgotten children are living on the Syrian border without school or education? You start building schools for them.

In 2019, Maren Maren Elise Skjerlie and Zarah Kirketerp-Møller founded the organization 5 Schools. The ambition was simple: to build 5 schools, complete with teachers, classrooms and school buses. Not an easy job, but in just a few years, the two women have built 16 schools and given more than 1,200 refugee children an everyday life full of playing and learning. And they have no intention of stopping here.

We love the project and donate a pair of locally produced shoes to a school child for each pair of roccamore Sneakers we sell. As Maren and Zarah say:

"We can't change the world, but we can change a child's world."

HOW CAN YOU HELP?

For every pair of sneakers we sell, we donate a pair of locally produced sneakers to a school child.

You can also donate tax-deductible to 5 Schools via their website.

SHOCK-ABSORBING LIGHTWEIGHT SOLE

The unique soles on our sneaker boots are made by our Portuguese manufacturing partner Bolflex.

You can look forward to extreme lightness with a sole that weighs just 224 grams. At the same time, it is both resistant and extremely durable. Technically, it differs from other sneaker soles by combining the properties of the rubber material with the lightness of EVA foam.

Thanks to its shock-absorbing and adaptable properties, EVA is perfect for sneaker soles, and combined with rubber, it is extremely durable. In addition to the Bolflex outsole, our sneaker boots have an antiperspirant leather insole with soft foam cushions. It also has shock-absorbing features.
