WHY HEMP SHOES?

8000Kicks' are made from industrial hemp, a sativa branch, known as the sober cousin of marijuana.
Industrial hemp has been used since 8000 BC, and it's properties include being anti-bacterial, needing no fertilizers and almost no water to grow, it cleans and restaures the nutrients in the soil, and it is also very durable. In fact, Hemp is so strong that Henry Ford even built a car out of it.
We are pioneers in the development of hemp and our goal is to bring back this powerful natural fiber and make hemp shoes mainstream.

The fabric was crafted in a way to make it super adjustable to customer's feet, guaranteeing maximum comfort on day 1.

Game changing comfort!

Introducing the World's 1st Hemp insoles.

Designed and developed by the world's smartest textile engineers using the world's eco-friendliest material. Zero impact on the planet, maximum comfort to our feet.

...Also not for smoking! Sorry folks.

100% vegan & ecofriendly

Only 4.1 kg of CO2 per shoe.

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.

Someone said waterproof?

We want to build footwear for the active person, the challenger, the explorer, something that could provide the best experience under any condition, and that’s why we built them waterproof.

Our waterproofing includes a natural coating that repels dust and liquids, plus a membrane that keeps water out no matter what.

Ultralight algae bottom

Weed upper, and algae bottom.

Phenomenons like algal blooms can destroy entire marine ecosystems if not controlled.

We partnered up with Bloom Foam to create a super light algae outsole with increased durability while sponsoring the removal of harmful algae.

introducing the Explorer

THE WORLD'S 1st WATERPROOF HEMP SHOE

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.

UK, Europe (non-EU) and Canada

Reduced shipping for orders above $90. Free exchanges and returns coming soon.

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.

Where do you ship from? Shipping times?

We currently fulfil our orders from Mira Loma, in California, and from Lisbon, Portugal. Standard shipping times vary:

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.

Overall great shoes

They are not only environmentally friendly and waterproof, but they have a surprisingly good grip when walking on wet ice. Good fit and good room for toes.

small houses

I’m working on a project, small houses for people with drug psychiatric challenges in recovery. Got the crazy idea of using hemp, industrial hempcrete and isolation. Sustainable healthy houses, and when a saw your shoes I thought this is living proof of the benefits of the plant. So, I keep my shoes and socks on my table as an inspiration for the project. Good looking packages smell healthy good too. Lots of thanks!

THE PEOPLE BEHIND IT

One night, after a few beers and joints with the boys, someone came up with the idea of making a shoe for smoking. It was a 5-in-morning-kind-of-idea, or maybe not.

Bernardo, the co-founder, asked the most unlikely person for help: Otilia, his grandmother, with over 50 years’ experience in textiles. Together, they spent over 1 year actively working with suppliers from around the world until what is now the World’s 1st waterproof hemp shoe.
