WHY WATERPROOF RAIN SHOES?
When we started 8000Kicks, we wanted to make a pair of versatile shoes for every occasion. Our shoes needed to be stylish enough to fit in with business casual, but waterproof and durable enough to take on any adventure you wanted. Our materials needed to be sustainably sourced and last a long time. We have succeeded in our mission. Our 1st model, The Explorer, is a pair of waterproof shoes that is perfect for rainy and sunny days alike.
Our shoes do not compromise the planet in any way. We are a carbon-neutral company, and we don’t use any animal products. 8000Kicks shoes are lightweight and comfortable for long walks, but stylish enough for more formal situations. Vegan, durable, recyclable, and almost completely compostable, these are the world's best waterproof rain shoes.
WHY 8000KICKS?
The simple answer: because we’re better. Most shoe companies like to pick and choose attributes they care about, never going the full distance to the perfect pair of shoes for puddle-jumping in the rain. We have put in the work to create a product that you don’t have to compromise on. Check out how 8000Kicks matches up to the competition:
100% RAIN SHOES
You can pick the clothes you wear, but you definitely don't pick the weather. Get your waterproof shoes and stay dry every season of the year. These rain shoes aren’t bulky or rubber either. Hemp is naturally water resistant, so you don’t have to compromise your sense of style for dry feet.

Flexible & Lightweight Algae Soles
The soles of our shoes are made of upcycled algae, collected from rivers and lakes affected by algal blooms. We sponsor the cleaning of those bodies of water by using them for our soles.
But why algae?
Besides helping the planet, our algae shoe soles are super lightweight and flexible, providing maximum comfort to our customers everyday.
Naturally Vegan
Our biggest concern when designing our rain shoes is preventing animal suffering by making them 100% vegan. Our second concern is to make them natural and biodegradable.
Our waterproof shoes are up to 95% biodegradable because we use sustainable materials like hemp, rubber, and algae for our soles.
Super Comfortable Design
Our hemp insoles are super comfortable! Unlike leather, Hemp is a very porous fabric allowing for breathability. Our insoles will skip suffocating your feet and jump straight to giving you the support you need. Your feet will be less smelly and by far healthier.
Buy sustainable shoes, buy hemp shoes!
More Than a Coating
Our waterproof rain kicks are for active, adventurous people. We’ve built them to survive any rigorous situation you may put them in.
That’s why our hemp shoes designed to be fully waterproof.
These shoes have a dual layer protection: a water-repellent wax-coated fabric and a waterproof membrane that keeps your feet dry no matter what.
Temperature Regulating Shoe
Our shoes are temperature-regulating as well as waterproof. This means your feet will feel perfect regardless of the temperature outside.
They are breathable, natural, and, sustainable. Insulation is a natural property of hemp, so Hempcrete is starting to get really popular in construction. At 8000Kicks, we use those exact same hemp properties to keep your feet at the perfect temperature all year round.

had a problem with sizes. The customer agent was extremely helpful and allowed me to swap out the size and color for free. The shoes fit great, and I really like the style. It’s crazy to think that they’re made of hemp and algae but it makes me feel better about owning something that’s not going to pollute the Earth. Love the sustainable shoes.

The shoes are awesome and they came in a super cool and recycled box! They are 100% waterproof which is great and they are even better in reality when compared with the photos ! They arrived in 24 hours after I ordered them and the customer service is super nice! I have already recommended them to friends and family.

Got my shoes today, iam so happy with them ! the plus side is the amazing sustainable packaging, very classy, even the enveloppe that contains the shoe box is made of plastic corn .... Its seams that my shoes got lost in the mail, 8000 contacted me by phone and was super eager to check my address so i could get them fast which happened 5 days later ... I was suprised by this gesture and customer service that i feel is rare nowadays ... they are confortable and beauty'full ... I love hemp for this plant will help save the planet and iam so happy to be able to participate to such a beauty'full entreprise in a world of competition, selfishness and jealousy ... so thank you to the 8000kicks team, one can feel when love is in every shred of hemp !

I accidently ordered the wrong shoes, but with the great customer service they changed it to the right size in time before shipment. Meaning I got my awesome shoes that are very comfortable to walk in, specially for long days when the foot swells. Comfortable space, comfortable cushion and comfortable wear. I enjoy them alot, and I walk a lot on hard surface. Also I live the idea of durability and less impact on the environment. I hope this project evolves as an example for others to follow.

I bought a pair of this vegan shoes and had to exchange them for a different size. Sara was extremely helpful and let me swap out the size and color. The shoes fit great, and I really like the style. It’s crazy to think that they’re made of hemp and algae but it makes me feel better about owning something that’s not going to pollute the Earth.

I've bought "vegan shoes" before, and been disappointed, so I wasn't sure what to expect here, but these shoes are super nice!
They're stylish, super light, and comfortable!
Everything about their packaging was also eco-friendly, and they came with a spare pair of shoelaces.

The shoes are awesome and they came in a super cool and sustainable box! They are 100% waterproof which is great and they are even better in person in comparison with the photos on the website! In addition they arrived in 24 hours after I ordered them and the customer service is as efficient as it is nice! I have already recommended them to friends and family and will continue to do so. I hope the company continues to grow and that hemp becomes an even more accessible material for producers! Thank you!!

My shoes arrived a little later than expected and because of that the CEO actually emailed me to inform me about it and apologized. I really appreciated this. When I got the kicks they looked great and were comfortable but unfortunately they were a bit small so I reached out to them and they replied quick and were super helpful to get an exchange or refund. You can tell that they really want to satisfy their customers. Overall a great experience! Would recommend.

Ordered the wrong size by mistake and Margarida in customer service quickly got me a return label and made sure I got the correct size. The shoes are light and soft and fit great. I wear ankle socks, so I normally need to wear higher socks to break in a new pair of shoes, but I'm surprised how good these feel right out of the box. Soft and flexible. And to top it all off, they're made of my favorite material! Lol

FAQ
I am not sure which size to pick!
Every brand has their own system and sometimes even models from the same brand differ from each other. But here's how you can find your shoe size.
Select a comfortable pair of sneakers and look at the CM/JP number. That's their maximum fit in CM, therefore your feet will be smaller. Then go to the 8000Kicks table and look for a size with the same range.
Contact us for further assistance: mail@8000kicks.com +1 478 401 4950 (Phone and WhatsApp)
Your size is not on the list ?
We are always opening new sizes. Half sizes, bigger and smaller, you are gradually opening new sizes as our company grows.
What if the shoe doesn't fit? Refunds?
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.
Free Shipping and Returns?
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.
Is there a warranty? Are they durable?
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.
Can I smoke the shoe?
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.
Can I take this on a flight? Will police dogs come after me?
8000Kicks are 100% legal everywhere in the world. Our team has traveled to Italy, France, USA, Canada, Morocco, Portugal and many other countries without any issues. Hemp is the sober cousin of marijuana, which means that it has no psychoactive components, less than 0.3% THC, definitely not a drug. In some countries it is illegal to cultivate hemp, but it is 100% legal to buy and sell finished hemp products like soap, paper and apparel as long as it is produced abroad.
