Made in China

Martumili Artists was established by Martu people living in the communities of Parnpajinya (Newman), Jigalong, Parnngurr, Punmu, Kunawarritji, Irrungadji and Warralong, and it draws on strong influences of aboriginal art history. The artists and their families are the traditional custodians of vast stretches of the Great Sandy, Little Sandy and Gibson Deserts as well as the Karlamilyi (Rudall River) area.  Most Martu people maintain an entirely independent, nomadic desert lifestyle until the 1950s and 1960s when they walked into settlements in response to a long and severe drought.  Today, Martu people live in their own communities and regularly visit regional centres such as Newman and Port Hedland.

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.
