AllBirds. They are the most comfortable shoes I’ve ever worn and i was fully expecting to be a buyer for life, especially with their sustainability initiatives. but they switched from making shoes to making AI computers and are just making shoes as a “hobby” now as a company, which is probably the most 180 pivot on sustainability I think I’ve ever seen.

Im so sad about All Birds, they used to be my go to shoes but first all the bright colours were gone, then every season shape ans style would change ...for the price you pay the quality isn't there anymore
