Casey Dworkin is the founder of the brand. Funny enough she was born on Earth Day, and has been dedicated to sustainable practices from a young age as a result. Prior to launching her own line, Dworkin spent her professional career working within small footwear and fashion companies. When she decided to launch a company of her own, she felt compelled to base her brand equally on craftsmanship, design, and mission – finally getting the opportunity to combine her affinities for both fashion and sustainability
The brand is a small company with less than 20 people working in it
Every pair of Sylven New York shoes is shipped with recycled paper, recycled cotton dust bags, and recycled and recyclable shoe boxes. They also employ a plastic-free packaging mandate with all of their factory partners
