What Our Customers Say
FAQ
Are backpacks made from hemp good?
Hemp is an incredibly durable material that has been in use since as far back as 8000 BC. It was historically used to make ropes, sails for ships, and even parts of some of Ford’s cars, which is why we chose it as the primary material for our backpacks.
Hemp is also highly eco-friendly:
- It uses five times less water than cotton
- It replenishes nutrients in the soil
- It doesn’t require fertilizers to thrive
- It absorbs CO2 from the atmosphere
By incorporating hemp into our products, we’re not only creating high-quality items but also contributing to the protection of the environment.
Are pure hemp bags smellproof?
Although our hemp fabric itself doesn't emit any odor, the backpacks are not designed to be smell-proof, so they won't prevent the scent of any substances from escaping.
Are hemp backpacks sturdy?
Hemp is a fiber that has been utilized for thousands of years. The Ancient Egyptians crafted rope, textiles, fine linen, and sails from it.
As a naturally durable fiber, hemp was commonly used in textiles and footwear until it was prohibited in the 1970s. It was even incorporated into the construction of some of Ford's cars.
Compared to cotton, hemp has longer fibers, giving it a significant advantage in durability when making fabrics. This makes hemp one of the strongest natural fibers available, which is why our backpacks are extremely long-lasting.
According to the Hemp Foundation, hemp can be even stronger than steel in certain applications.
How can I wash my backpack?
Our hemp backpacks are crafted from high-quality hemp fibers, and we recommend cleaning them by hand using warm water, soap, and a kitchen scrub. Machine washing is not advised, as it could potentially damage certain components of the bag and reduce its water-repellent properties.
Are the backpacks waterproof?
Our backpack offers two layers of waterproof protection:
1. A coating that repels liquids and dust from entering.
2. A membrane that prevents water from getting inside under any conditions.
This ensures that the backpack can withstand good amount of water, but it is not designed for heavy showers or for full submersion in water.
Returns and exchanges
Each backpack has a period of 60 days be returned or exchanged. It must be in the original packaging. The 8000Kicks reserves the right to ask for pictures to confirm the product is in the same condition as when it was sent.

Can I smoke the backpack?
Do you really want to smoke our hemp backpack? :-D
