Pauline Abreu
Eco- friendly shoes come in lot's of different styles and many sizes. These shoes not only look good, but they are also environmentally sound. What better way to help the earth, than to start at the bottom and work your way up? Eco-friendly shoes are made from natural products with less of the toxic substances used in the manufacturing of regular shoes. Materials are used from organic plants such as, hemp, cork and bamboo. Many of the products used have been recycled, like tires and clothes to make these shoes greener.

    Great article. Remember Earth SHoes back in the 70's and 80's?
