Commitment #1

Thread Lightly, Tread Lightly

At Yeah Buddy, we’re committed to sustainability and purpose. Using eco-friendly materials like TerraLite and Australian Merino Wool, we reduce our impact while empowering runners to move forward with care—for themselves and the planet.

COMMITMENT #2

Buy 1, Plant 1, Remove 1

Every purchase with Yeah Buddy makes a difference. Through our Buy 1, Plant 1, Remove 1 initiative, we plant one tree and remove one plastic bottle from the ocean for every item order. It’s our way of combining environmental restoration with sustainable progress, ensuring every step you take leaves the planet better than we found it. You can track our impact here.

COMMITMENT #3

1% For The Planet

At Yeah Buddy, we’re proud members of 1% for the Planet, committing 1% of our annual revenue to environmental non-profits working to protect and restore our natural world. It’s our way of giving back to the planet that inspires us to run, ensuring a healthier future for generations to come. Together, every step counts.

COMMITMENT #4

Performance Pledge

At Yeah Buddy, we stand by the quality and performance of our gear. If your product doesn’t meet your expectations at any point, we’ll make it right with a repair, replacement, or refund—because your trust matters to us.

We also believe in running responsibly. That’s why we encourage you to care for your gear and, when it’s time to part ways, pass it on, trade it, or recycle it sustainably. Together, we can keep moving forward while reducing waste.

Let’s create a better journey for you and the planet.

COMMITMENT #5

B Corp Commitment

At Yeah Buddy, we believe in balancing profit with purpose. That’s why we’re on track to become a Certified B Corporation in 2026, meeting the highest standards of social and environmental impact. This certification reflects our dedication to running a business that’s not just good for athletes, but good for the planet and our community too.
