Simple Shoes launches special edition ecoSNEAKS collection for StopGlobalWarming.org

Simple Shoes, who we met at Bread & Butter recently, have just partnered up with StopGlobalWarming.org, a movement that has so far excited over 993,000 individuals to join the Stop Global Warming Virtual March, just like TreeHugger did (click here to join via the TreeHugger partner page).

Simple Shoes donates $5 from every pair of StopGlobalWarming edition products they sell. These include the Toepeeka flip-flop in two colors (launched in 2007) and the StopGlobalWarming ecoSNEAKS collection launched recently. Like all Simple Shoes, the ecoSNEAKS are made from sustainable materials: hemp uppers, recycled car tires bottoms, organic cotton linings, recycled plastic bottles (PET) shoe laces and foot beds, and water-based glues, and on top of that, they look great!

Particularly the special editions of the colourful men’s Snotire sneaker, women’s Satire sneaker and men’s and women’s Retire slip-ons, all printed with Joe Curren’s pictures that capture the natural beauty of his and Simple Shoes’ hometown, Santa Barbara. The shoes come labelled with the iconic red stop global warming sign. ::Simple Shoes

Unfortunately, Simple Shoes are made in China. I'd feel better about buying them if they were made in the U.S.

Besides that, they don't contribute $5 for each pair of ecoSneaks, it's only this one sandal they sell.
