I've been in the market for some new shoes for a little while and have been researching what is out there. I realized certain manufacturers are starting (or at least have the option) to ditch the canvas in favor of hemp. One of the cheaper ($50) hemp shoes out there are also a classic in the Converse Chuck Taylors. I think I might just give these a shot.
Hemp is a good alternative material for the environment as it is a sustainable crop since it is ready for harvest about 4 months after planting.
