Schoenfabriek Van Bommel manufactures quality shoes. A quality shoe on average lasts many times longer than a pair of shoes of inferior quality. Depending on the production method, a Van Bommel shoe can be resoled on several occasions. Via the foundations referred to in point 8 of this document, Van Bommel promotes and encourages the repairing of worn shoes. Longer use and reuse through repair is a simple means of reducing the burden on the environment.
