Why Choose Hemp Shoes?

Hemp is an excellent material for shoes. It is an attractive  option for producing stylish,durable and eco friendly products. Here are a few reasons why:

Comfort: The fibre produced from pure hemp is similar to linen in texture, keeping you warm in winter and cool in summer.

Hemp fibres are also extremely lightweight compared to other materials, producing a feather light shoe, with a soft comfort incomparable to any other.

Durability: Hemp fibre is strong and resilient; it has four times the strength of cotton, so it won’t weaken when washed and lasts longer making a highly durable and long-lasting material. This strength translates to shoes that will resist wear and tear.

Natural Antimicrobial Properties: Hemp material has natural antimicrobial properties that help in reducing bacterial growth and is very moisture absorbent, making it a hygienic choice for footwear, especially beneficial for preventing odour and moisture buildup.

Eco-friendly and Sustainable: Hemp is a sustainable and biodegradable resource. It grows quickly, requires minimal pesticides and very little water (50% to 75% less than cotton). The plant is phyto-remediative, which means it removes toxins from the soil and returns nutrients to the ground. Less land is required, as hemp produces up to double the fibre per hectare than cotton. Using hemp for shoes supports environmentally friendly practices and reduces the carbon footprint associated with more resource-intensive materials.
