once they calm down with the ridiculous pricing, i'm going to show support 100%. recycled anything is positive vibes as far as i'm concerned. the trainers are made from 100% recycled consumer waste (old rubber tires, car seats, foam)
for men and ladies. check it.

yeah, is a good idea.
i agree though, 150 plus is quite steep.

Vege shoes are brillant, out of step in Leeds has an awesome collection, any other places outside Leeds stock them?

Thoes terra plana jack tweeds are well worth the money. I think Schuh stock Terra Plana?

gottta make a better looking pair though. Ungh. Might as well walk around with your foot directly in the old car tire. Maybe have a diaper instead of laces.

fair enough. but what are adidas,nike,reebok doing for the environment? i own nike sneakers, but hopefully once companies like terra reduce prices i won't have to support them any longer. it's the little things we all do that make a difference.

$60-$80. they're not manufacturing things only cutting up, constructing things, so i don't see how they charge $126. i'm always sceptical about eco-friendly companies trying to make money by marketing eco-friendly, but at least the end result is less toxic waste.

veggie shoes never last very long in my experience.
