A case for hemp.

With eco-consciousness growing all across the globe, it was only a matter of time until the damaging effects of plastics was noted and efforts made to bring it under control. While the struggle is just ramping up, there had to be a solution somewhere that could replace a number of these plastics in shoe manufacturing.

While hemp was previously hampered by the myriad of anti-drug laws across the globe, it turns out it was the perfect answer to a lot of questions. Hemp is hypoallergenic, meaning it can be used to make a lot of clothing products that will not irritate your skin.

Hemp is an environmentally friendly crop that doesn’t require heavy irrigation, or even chemicals such as pesticides to grow. If anything, hemp chokes out any plants growing amongst it, meaning weeds have no chances of survival. Therefore, no herbicides, fungicides or pesticides required.

Hemp also has natural anti-bacterial properties. So when you have on your sandals for long and expect to be met with an odor, that is not an issue with shoes made from hemp.
