Hemp Running Shoes

Hemp shoes for men are made like other shoes, but the fiber is different. Common materials used in making shoes are cotton, leather, and polyester. However, hemp shoes are made from hemp fiber, which is one of the various ways hemp plants can be used.

At 8000Kicks we picked hemp because it is very durable, sustainable, anti bacterial, breathable and comfortable.

Is hemp good for shoes?

Hemp is a fiber that has been used for milenniums. Ancient Egyptians used it to make rope, textiles, fine linen, and sails.

Hemp is a naturally durable fiber that was widely used in textiles and shoes until it was banned in the 70s. Hemp is also naturally anti-bacterial and anti-microbial, breathable and comfortable, which makes it a great option to build footwear.

At 8000Kicks we also made it waterproof by adding a bio based wax coating that repels all liquids from coming in. We have spend years developing this fiber to the point where we can show the world this is the best natural fiber available.

We want to get you in a pair that fit right, and that you love wearing. If you are not satisfied with your purchase, contact us within 60 days of receiving your 8000Kicks to arrange for a replacement, exchange, or refund. Footwear must be in new condition, with no signs of wear, and in original packaging. All returns require a return authorization from 8000Kicks Customer Service. We reserve the right to require a photo of the footwear and unfortunately we can’t offer free return shipping.

We currently have free shipping to the US and EU.

We do not offer free returns in Canada, UK, Australia, NZ, Switzerland, Norway, but we are working on it.

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.

Do you really want to smoke our shoe? XD

Hemp is the sober cousin of marijuana, which means that it has no psychoactive components, less than 0.3% THC, which means that technically you are definitely not getting high. Now seriously, please note that smoking the shoe is not a good idea and might get you hospitalized.
