Around since 1997, Wicked Footwear took a giant leap in the animal- and planet-friendly direction 2 years ago by launching a new line of hiking shoes called, Wicked Hemp.  (below, top row – men’s styles; bottom row – women’s)

Intent on making a low impact on Mother Earth, this innovative collection which is made entirely from hemp, wood pulp and recycled materials, has gained traction in the marketplace, and now comes in 20 different styles. The vegan line includes men’s and women’s loafers, sandals and wedges.  Your feet will love you — maximum comfort is attained via removeable insoles that have recycled sponge pads on the heels and metatarsals. many more styles (ranging from about $60-$72) @ wickedhemp.com
