HEMP UPPER, ALGAE SOLE
Hemp is FAR more sustainable than all other footwear materials. Hemp is simply the most environmentally friendly plant going.
Hemp is...
With most cultures on earth, the fact that our feet rarely touch the surface of the earth is not even considered. Go for a run or a walk with dog - sure it's great for our fitness, but there's more to gain from time outside.
"Grounding" has been shown to improve our neurological, physical and mental health. Think forest bathing and the feeling you get lying directly on the grass vs a synthetic picnic blanket or yoga mat. 8000 Kicks soles are not made of plastics but algae; not only sustainable but made of the earth, the organic sea bed itself.
The concept of grounding reaches much wider than a group of hippies lying starfish-shaped on a green field singing Kum-Ba-Ya. It involves the actual materials we wear and use between our bodies and the ground and it has been shown to give hundreds of health benefits to people from many walks of life.
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.
