sneakers for the sole

I'm very sad that Nike bought Converse, though it does mean a bazillion varieties of Chuck (including a knee-high pleated silk for waaaay too many $$)

Meanwhile my Keens are wearing out, and I'm in the market for a new (and hopefully socially responsible, maybe even vegan) pair of sneakers.

I'm looking at these:

Anybody have other recommendations?

It doesn't get any more politically correct then these; organic free trade shoes, made by happy independent trade union members in the US, Canada, and the developing world, some made from hemp (the shoes, not the trade union members ;) ), and they plant trees when you buy stuff and and and :)

I would be ALL OVER those pink "no sweat" but they are out of my size!! WAAAAAH!

Thanks Trek for the link for this wonderful site. :)

Wow--nice site! I wish they had the chocolate brown in my size.....

I've had my eye on these (a little too pricey yet)

Ok, I should have stopped looking, I'm not usually into pink, but I love these

Those pink high tops are the ones my Angie wore to her Prom. She has a fairy hot pink gown, black and white striped tights, pink and black hair, and pink high tops. Wanna see a picture?

Yes please. :D

Absolutely. :D

Oh, man, do I get the black and pink MacBeth sneakers or the red high-top No Sweat sneakers...

I want pink high-tops. Can't wait to see the prom picture!:D

My baby girl, 4 years ago. 600+ graduates and you could still spot her in the crowd. :rolleyes: :D

Great pictures!!! :D

Brilliant, I love it the pictures! :D

Great picture, looks like she had fun. Check out the understated checkered sneakers on her date, nice design touch.

This doubles as her bridesmaid dress? ;) :rolleyes: right?

DH had sneakers like that! :D

What a fabulous outfit your daughter had! Looks great!

H&B

Trek - we talked about that actually. Uh no, I don't think so. She doesn't have pink hair anymore though. And god observation on her date's shoes. He had to find a way to keep up with her. :) She went thru such a funny stage from 15-17 ~ such outfits she used to wear. I'd stop and take photos of the stuff she had on before she went out. She was big into 80's stuff for awhile...

Ok.. what are vegan shoes?

Shoes made entirely from plant material?
