Our aim at Jinga Shoes is to capture this vibrancy and dynamism of Brazilian culture and channel it into everything we do, all the way through from product design at the start to the outcomes at the very end of our business process, making sure these are positive both socially and environmentally (Find out More Here). Making sure that Jingas are a great product through and through.
 
 
The Jinga Original
 
With its origins as a dance and Capoeira shoe, the Jinga Original, our signature shoe, is an exceptionally lightweight and flexible. Weighing less than 400g per pair and with both upper and outersole designed to give the maximum range of movement to your feet, Jinga shoes allow you to move more freely, as nature intended. True to their Brazilian origins, Jinga shoes are produced in a wide range of vibrant colours.
 
New for Autumn 2011: The Jinga Carioca
 
The Jinga Carioca is a brand new addition to the Jinga product range. A Ladies Ballerina with a streetwear twist in the styling, Jinga Cariocas carry through our design commitment to creating stylish, lightweight footwear solutions. The Carioca shoe is inspired by the dancefloors of the traditional gafieiras (dancehalls) in Rio de Janeiro packed with Rio residents (Cariocas) of all ages and walks of life, every one making both style and dancing look effortless! 
 
Jingas for Dance
 
Jingas are more than just a good looking shoe. They are designed specifically as a hybrid shoe, performing as naturally on the dancefloor as strolling down the street. Find out more about Jingas for Dance: Jinga Dance
 
 
Materials and Production 
 
All materials are sourced locally to our production facility in Brazil. For the upper fabrics we have selected manufacturers specialising in high quality sports fabrics and with a commitment to cleaner, greener production processes.
 
All current Jinga Collections carry the Green Seal stamp, awarded by the Brazilian Government for environmental best practice and a high standard of working conditions in the production facility.
 
All waste generated in the production of Jingas is sent for sorting and recycling to a new recycling facility co-funded by our own manufacturer.
 
 
 
Technicals
 
Our design goal is to find the perfect balance between Lightness, Flexibility and Durability, so your experience in Jingas is like walking barefoot. To this end, we have invested in cupped soles, which instead of being stamped out flat, are specially moulded to curve up around the edge of the shoe, in order to protect the fabric nearest the ground even when the sole is very low.
 
The Sole itself is made from TPU, a sole material offering superior wear, grease and temperature resistance, and with the natural flexibility to give you unrestricted movement. 
 
The lateral design (stripes) may look like decoration, but thats not all they are! The placement is strategically designed to give the best possible protection to the lightweight fabric beneath the shoes at key stress points and to hold shape with the minimum of extra bulk.
