FLIBS 2025

For four incredible days at the Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show, the Kelps team shared its energy, vision, and seaweed-made sandals 🌿 with thousands of visitors from around the world.

Under the Florida sun β€” surrounded by yachts, palm trees, and smiles β€” Kelps made waves:
πŸ‘‰ All our first batch of 100 pairs sold on-site
πŸ‘‰ Hundreds of people captivated by our β€œeco-luxury” approach
πŸ‘‰ Inspiring meetings with yacht crews, marinas, hotels, and distributors


βš“ A First Collection That Made a Splash

Just like Crocs did 24 years ago, Kelps started at FLIBS β€” with passion, simplicity, and a purpose.
Our mission: to craft 100% biodegradable, anti-slippery, non-marking sandals, all made from Sargassum seaweed β€” the invasive brown algae polluting our shores.

Each pair sold is a victory for the planet and proof that innovation can be born from nature.
