It's THAT comfortable!
Before being banned, Hemp was widely used because of its anti-microbial and anti-bacterial properties.
Also, did you know hemp is used as home insulation because it is a temperature regulating material?
Super light algae bottom
Weed upper, and algae bottom.
Phenomenons like eutrophication can destroy entire marine ecosystems if not controlled.
We partnered up with Bloom Foam to create a super light algae bottom with increased durability while sponsoring the removal of harmful algae.
Waterproof and dustproof
Our hemp has been made to repel water from coming in. We added a proprietary coating layer that protects the fabric and its properties from stains, liquids and dust particles. This will make the fabric very easy to clean as well.
We have also added a waterproof membrane that keeps your feet dry no matter what.

100% vegan & sustainable shoes
Only 4.1 kg of CO2 per pair.
Manufacturing a pair of running shoes emits around 14kg of CO2 to the atmosphere, while a pair of leather shoes can reach up to 100Kg, that's like flying across the US.
Our shoes not only generate a lot less CO2, they are also 100% vegan and animal friendly.

Free exchanges and returns have been suspended in the UK due to BREXIT. All UK returns and exchanges must be sent to our US warehouse because parcels arriving the EU from the UK are subject to taxes and import fees.

USA: 3 to 7 days
EU: 5- 7 days
Portugal: 2 days
Rest of the world: 2 weeks
Is it really waterproof?
Our shoes have two layers of waterproof protection:
1- A coating that repels liquids and dust from coming in.
2- A membrane that keeps water out no mater what.
This means that our kicks work under rain and puddles. However, water might still get in from the ankle and the shoelaces area, specially under heavy rains or if completely submerged.
Is the explorer 100% Hemp? What other materials are used?
The Explorer V2 is not 100% hemp, as there are other materials in the mix, including a recycled polyester lining inside, a inner waterproof membrane, and a semi synthetic bioplastic sole made from algae.
The packaging is also made of recycled cardboard.
Is there a warranty? Are they durable?
Unfortunately we don't have a warranty because shoes are subject to maximum wear and tear. However, from our experiences both our hemp and our soles have performed very well on our "torture" tests and we can confidently say that they are stronger than any branded sneakers in the same price range. We also tested over 10 types of different glues to find a perfect fit that would survive under the harshest conditions.
However, if for some accident or problem our shoes do not perform as expected, please contact us and we can deal with it and issue a replacement pair if necessary.
Can I take this on a flight? Will police dogs come after me?
8000Kicks are 100% legal everywhere in the world. Our team has traveled to Italy, France, USA, Canada, Morocco, Portugal and many other countries without any issues. Hemp is the sober cousin of marijuana, which means that it has no psychoactive components, less than 0.3% THC, definitely not a drug. In some countries it is illegal to cultivate hemp, but it is 100% legal to buy and sell finished hemp products like soap, paper and apparel as long as it is produced abroad.
Can I smoke the shoe?
Do you really want to smoke our shoe? :-D
Hemp is the sober cousin of marijuana, which means that it has no psychoactive components, less than 0.3% THC, so you are definitely not getting high. Now seriously, please note that smoking the shoe is not a good idea and it might get you hospitalized.
