Gnarly Earth-Shoes That Make You High

Shoes that make you HIGH? Seriously? Of course, by “high” I would mean, uplifted spirits, what with the eco-friendliness and whatnot.

Ecosneaks is a line of eco-friendly sneaks from the Simple Shoes company that makes sneakers from PET (polyethelyne terephthalate – recycled plastics), recycled car tires and, well … hemp. Not to worry though, as in their site, they have this catchy phrase, “hemp isn’t marijuana; and a good thing too because I am pretty sure I’d be fired if I smoked all the ecoSNEAKS inventory.

Hitting up their products page will show you tons of variety for eco-friendly foot wear. Not only will you be leaving an ecological footprint by using ‘em, you’ll also be doing it literally.

Not only do they have sneakers, they also make sandals and bags as well.

The thing that catches my attention though, is the Greentoe line. Clicking “learn more” shows you tons of information on the stuff they actually use to make the shoes with. And if you’re worried about the packaging, they make their boxes from 100% recycled paper. (Plus, they suggest using the box as a box to plant in, going that extra mile in preserving the greens that actually make this earth a beautiful place.)
