Danger Will Robinson!

This Site is very dangerous for me. It plays to two things I am passionate about. The Environment and footwear!

Simple Shoes is a company that makes all of their shoes using renewable or recycled materials. For instance, all of their shoe bottoms are made from recycled car tires. Yes, you heard me, car tires. Their ethos is " The nice little shoe company getting in touch with its inner hippie."

Made at a small factory in Santa Barbara California, these are some people I could really hang with! The site has animations of the factory, complete with an "emergency surf break" button.

PLUS! they are currently running a sale wherein all orders in the continental US have free shipping. FREE. doesnt cost anything.

The shoes themselves are a little more costly than perhaps they should be, but to me that isnt a factor. Once mainstream America realizes that there is a tidy profit to be made on recycled materials or more ethically produced materials, more will be made. And that is nothing but good.

PLUS, their "toepeeka" flip flops donate $5 from each pair sold to StopGlobalWarming.org, an organization committed to spreading the word on the very real threat of global warming, and have organized a march to that effect.

Basically this is an awesome website, and I expect to see everyone I know in a pair of these shoes in the near future! I know I'll be rocking a few!
