Notable Features:

Free Carrying Bag made from Organic 100% Hemp 14 oz Canvas

Hemp is a high-performance all-seasons fabric appropriate for both indoor and outdoor use. Hemp provides warmth and breathability in a superior combination than cotton and most other fabrics. The shaft-like structure of hemp fiber allows it to wick moisture right off the body and dry quickly.

Manufacturer:

This sweatshop-free product is designed and manufactured by Ecolution using locally grown organic hemp. Ecolution is based in the democratic country Romania, where it owns its own organic hemp fields and processing facility, which operate under fair trade no-sweatshop guidelines. The employees that made this product are paid more than the Romanian average, are given opportunities for advancement within the company, receive medical and pension coverage, and work in a facility that is safe, well-lit, heated, and free of toxic chemicals. Ecolution does not employ children. In addition to showing utmost concern for its workers, Ecolution products are 100% vegan, containing no products from animal exploitation such as leather or wool.

Ecolution's organic hemp crops are grown in accordance with the European Union's organic certification regulations. Unlike most hemp fabrics, the fabric in this product was processed using a series of fine mechanical combings rather than heavy caustic sodas and acid rinses. Non-chemical processing is environmentally friendly, and preserves the integrity of the hemp fiber, which contributes to a strong and durable fabric. Ecolution has manufactured this product with rigorous attention to quality, so that the environmental impact of production and distribution can be spread over as many years of product life as possible. Hemp fabric is very resistant to degradation from mold, bacteria, salt water, sunlight, abrasion, and chemicals. At the end of this product's life, the organic hemp fabric is 100% biodegradable, unlike synthetic fabrics or tanned leather.

Ecolution uses environmentally friendly fiber-reactive and plant-based dyes. Fiber-reactive dyes contain no heavy metals or known toxic substances, and meet all European Union criteria for being environmentally friendly. Fiber-reactive dye molecules bond permanently with fiber molecules, significantly reducing the amount of dye entering the water system through production and home washing. Plant-based dies, such as Oak, Bilberry, Pansy, and Oregano are sourced locally from Romania, and are fixed using only environmentally friendly mordants such as blue stone, alum, salt, and vinegar. All of Ecolution's buttons are made from natural biodegradable materials such as uninhabited sea shells or tagua nuts that are collected by indigenous peoples from the Amazon rainforest. Even Ecolution's threads are selected only from first world factories that hold Oeko-Tex 100 Standard certificates for environmentally friendly production practices.

Organic hemp huaraches April 14, 2007
Reviewer: Jami Gallegos from Madera, CA United States  
These shoes are my favorite.  In fact, this is my third pair.  I wore my first pair all over the Hawaiian Islands every day for the better part of a year and a half, and their still going.  These shoes are sturdier than they look, although they are not very supportive.  I hiked around a lot in them, although I don't recommend it.  I washed mine in the washing machine every so often to keep them clean, air dry because the dryer will shrink them.  This will be my first pair with the thicker sole, so we'll see how long they last. Over all a fabulous product that comes highly recommended.
