Bridging the gap between style and sustainability,⁠ the first waterproof Hemp sneaker kicks the other brands out of the stadium.

Definitely not for smoking, 8000 KICKS are designed with the help of the world's smartest textile engineers using the world's eco-friendliest materials - Hemp. Zero impact on the planet, maximum comfort to your feet.

Hemp Runners? Why on Earth?

Hemp is FAR more sustainable than all other footwear materials. Hemp is simply the most environmentally friendly plant going.

Hemp is...

• so green it’s carbon negative
• the strongest natural fibre
• pesticide free
• fast growing
• breathable and cooling
• enriching to the soil it is grown in (yes it really is)
• used for thousands of years, 8000 in fact
  

Why on Earth? Great question! Synthetic vs Natural Runner Soles

Ever thought about your white synthetic soles and how your feet rarely touch the surface of the earth. Go for a run, a walk with dog and sure it's great for fitness but there's more to gain from time outside. "Grounding" has been scientifically shown to improve our neurological, physical and mental health. Think forest bathing and the feeling you get lying on directly on the grass vs a synthetic picnic blanket. Well 8000 Kicks soles are not made of plastics but algae; not only sustainable but made of the earth, the organic sea bed itself.


How do you Get Runner Soles from Algae?

So 8000 KICKS partnered up with Bloom Foam to create a super light algae bottom with increased durability while sponsoring the controlled removal of excess algae from entire marine ecosystems.

Emitting just 4.1Kg of carbon per pair (as opposed to the average 14Kg)  your next everyday footwear choice can be a more mindful and natural one.

Fora Studios is proud to be the Australian distributor for 8000 KICKS. Find out more about 8000 KICKS here.

Nice Bergamote by Antoine Maisondieu

"I imagine this fragrance as a tribute to the aristocratic beauty of Calabrian Bergamot, sublimating it with a few rose and jasmine petals and some precious woods softened by tonka beans."

The Musc by Calice Becker

As a child, Calice Becker once asked her mother how flowers get inside a bottle of eau de cologne. The liquid inside was transparent, but it smelled strongly of orange blossoms. Once she started studying perfumery, she discovered the answer to this mystery, and today she herself fills crystal bottles with flowers.

At once fresh, honeyed, and warm, The Musc is a subtle blend of captivating scents. It opens with red ginger from Laos and natural lavandin grosso* from France. Natural and sustainable beeswax brings a creamy sweetness to the heart, paired with a pure note of Nirvanolide musk. Australia’s natural sandalwood punctuates the blend with warm, woody tones.

Replanted 20 years ago, Australia’s Sandalwood Album provides Aboriginal communities with protection and sustainability for their land.

One of the most respected perfumers in the world, Calice Becker has created world-renowned fragrances such as Dior J’adore and other “chef-d'oeuvre” for YSL, Marc Jacobs and By Kilian.

Olivier Pescheux
 

Divine Vanille, is a tribute to Vanilla absolute, sustainably produced in Madagascar.

And a cleverly included fraction of natural Cedarwood and Patchouli brings a creamy woody structure highlighted with silky musks, wrapping the fragrance with a delicate luminous veil.

We love The Little Growers' gorgeously cut and stitched aprons.

Join The Little Growers community of small garden grubs, to create connectivity, develop healthy habits and an understanding of the earth from a young age.

Apart from being fun for kids, the research tells us that, even more than weekend sports and activities, the more time young children kids spend growing, harvesting and understanding food, the better their health will be over their lifetime.

Your child's school or pre-school may already have a vegetable or herb garden. Why not take the leap and get them excited about growing their own at home. They may teach you something. You don't need a big backyard, just a few pots for herbs to start with, or some raised planters for vegetables on the balcony. 

Depending on your council, you could grow your own on your nature strip and get your street involved. Share food scraps and compost and eventually real food from the earth where you live. 

The Little Growers' aprons are machine washable and are made from a 70% linen, 30% cotton fibre blend.

Sizing best for Ages 3-7

Also available in Vege Garden Print
