Eco Sports Problem Statement
Climate change is one of the defining challenges of our time, with global temperatures already rising and the world at risk of exceeding the 1.5°C threshold that scientists warn could trigger irreversible environmental damage. Animal agriculture contributes roughly 14–15% of global greenhouse gas emissions, while fossil fuels remain the largest overall driver of climate change. Yet many everyday consumer products—including sports equipment—are still heavily dependent on both industries through the use of leather, plastics, and petroleum-based materials.
The world of sports relies on a healthy planet for clean air, safe water, and stable outdoor environments, but the equipment we play with is often made in ways that undermine those very conditions. As participation in sports and recreation continues to grow globally, so does the environmental footprint of the gear we use.
Eco Sports Mission Statement
Eco Sports is on a mission to solve this problem and reshape sports by reimagining the materials behind the equipment we play with. We create and partner on high-performance gear made from more greener, eco-friendly, and non-toxic materials, replacing traditional leather and fossil-fuel-based inputs with plant-based, recycled, and biodegradable alternatives. Our goal is to reduce environmental impact while preserving performance, durability, and accessibility—empowering communities to play, compete, and thrive in ways that are better for our planet.
Eco Sports Vision
Our vision for the future includes every athlete, community, and even animals enjoying sports and play without contributing harm to the environment or others. We strive to lead a global shift toward sustainable sports equipment by redefining performance, ethics, and environmental responsibility—proving that the gear we play with can protect people, animals, and the planet.
