Girls' Eco-Friendly Sneakers & Sustainable Trainers

Girls' Trainers: Comfortable, Versatile & Eco-Friendly

A good pair of girls' trainers needs to do it all — comfortable enough for a full day at school, versatile enough to work with a dress or jeans, and tough enough to survive the playground. At Natural World Eco, ours are made with natural materials like organic cotton and natural rubber, so they're lightweight, breathable and kinder to the planet. Available in a wide range of colours, patterns and fastenings, there's a style for every girl and every occasion.

Slip-ons, velcro and suede: styles for every age

Our collection of girls' canvas shoes and trainers covers different fastenings and materials to suit every need:

Canvas slip-on trainers — The easiest option for girls who want to be out of the door fast. No laces, no straps — just slide in and go. Made from organic cotton with a reinforced rubber toecap, available in dozens of colours and finishes including tinted, embroidered and distressed. Breathable, lightweight and machine washable at 30 °C.

Velcro trainers — A secure, adjustable fit that younger girls can manage on their own. The strap fastening makes them quick to put on and take off while keeping the shoe firmly in place during active play. A practical choice for school, the park and everything in between.

Suede trainers — A warmer option for the colder months. Soft to the touch, with a synthetic lining on the inside for extra comfort when temperatures drop. Available in several colours and with a slightly smarter look that works just as well at a weekend outing as on a school day.

Natural materials, made to last

Our girls' trainers use GOTS-certified organic cotton for the canvas models — grown without pesticides, naturally breathable and gentle on young skin. The suede models use responsibly sourced leather with a warm, soft finish. All soles are made from natural rubber, providing flexibility, grip and cushioning on any surface.

Canvas trainers are bonded by vulcanisation — heat and pressure, no chemical glues — making them more durable and fully washable. The entire collection carries Green Trade World certification, guaranteeing no harmful substances at any stage of production.

Frequently asked questions

Can girls' canvas trainers go in the washing machine?

Yes. Canvas models with natural rubber soles are machine washable at 30 °C on a short cycle. Remove the insoles, wash with similar colours and air dry in the shade. Avoid tumble drying. For suede trainers, use a dry crepe brush and apply a waterproofing spray before first use.

What materials are used?

Canvas models use GOTS-certified organic cotton and natural rubber soles, bonded by vulcanisation (no chemical glues). Suede models use responsibly sourced leather with a synthetic lining. All materials are Green Trade World certified — free from harmful substances.

Slip-ons, velcro or lace-ups?

Slip-ons are the quickest option — no fastening at all, ideal for older girls who value speed and simplicity. Velcro offers a secure, adjustable fit that younger girls can manage independently. Lace-ups provide the most structured fit and a classic trainer look. All three use the same quality materials.

What sizes are available?

Our girls' trainers are available in a range of European sizes. Check the size guide on each product page for detailed measurements. We recommend leaving around 10–12 mm of growing room beyond the longest toe.

Are they suitable for school?

Many of our canvas and slip-on models work well as everyday school shoes, particularly in warmer months. Plain colours like black, navy and white tend to be the most school-friendly. Our suede trainers offer a slightly smarter alternative for schools with stricter uniform policies.

Which style is best for winter?

Our suede trainers with synthetic lining are the warmest option — they provide insulation without being heavy. For colder and wetter conditions, consider our girls' boots, which offer more coverage and protection.
