Simple Shoes
is truly committed to making 100% sustainable shoes and bags.
They are continually updating to more sustainable processes and materials such as organic cotton, hemp, cork, water-based glues, recycled inner tubes and car tires; and they measure their sustainability success for each product on a scale of good, better and best. The "best" category is comprised of their most sustainable shoes and bags and stands as a goal for the rest of their products.
