HOW EVERYTHING STARTED?
We are Jorge and Tatiana, a young couple from Galicia (Spain) committed to make a positive impact in the world. Animal lovers, wild nature passionates, please, go check “Galicia” on Google and you will understand why! Sneaker freaks and #ZeroWaste warriors will be a great definition of our personality and what moved us to create a project together and design our own sneakers brand, to create Beflamboyant.
Beflamboyant was born in a trip in which we realized how irreversible is the footprint that brands, consumers and all of us are leaving on the planet and how much our future depends on the decisions we make today to improve our present.
Here it is: the symbol that inspired our brand, in the middle of Havana. There we discovered the Flamboyant Tree. The Flamboyant Tree is our image, our homage to what Havana gave to us.
Storytelling
From that trip (July 2018) we brought the idea, the project and our present. A year later (June 2019) we launched our first collection of vegan sneakers through a crowdfunding on Kickstarter.
We named that first collection UX68, it is the number of the flight back to Spain where the idea was traveling and returning with us, it is one more tribute to the origin of our project.
Today, the UX68 collection remains Beflamboyant's best-selling and best-valued collection, after thousands and thousands of pairs sold.
Beflamboyant is, therefore, the result of our dream of creating a fashion project that was sustainable and responsible with the environment as well as the people and the animals, which also aims to make a positive impact in our place of origin, Galicia (Spain).
