Striped Hemp Socks in Black

8000Kicks

8000Kicks is a US brand making footwear from industrial hemp for men and women. Its range includes waterproof hemp sneakers, wide toe box styles, hemp Chelsea boots and slip-ons, plus hemp backpacks, hats, socks and wallets. Good On You rates 8000Kicks Good overall, with Great for animals because the brand states its whole range is vegan. Good On You notes a medium share of lower-impact materials such as hemp, action on transport emissions, some recycled packaging and a recycling offer for customers, though it does not report results. On labour, it traces most of its supply chain, has a Code of Conduct covering ILO principles and pays some final-stage workers living wages. The brand runs leftover-stock sales so unsold pairs get worn instead of sitting in storage. During its Kenya Campaign, it donated 10% of every sale to an orphanage to pay for the children's schooling.
