Your bamboo longboard and rope sandals don't mix too well, so get the vegan-friendly Simple D-Solve Shoe before you try to ride down to the fruit stand again. You'll dig the comfort and support of this skate-inspired shoe, but the sustainable, recycled, and biodegradable materials will make the Earthling in you happy as you bite into an explosively juicy peach.

  • Soft organic cotton and jute upper (as well as organic cotton lining and laces) feels nice and withstands scuffs and tumbles off your concrete wave machine
  • The EVA midsole cushions your steps and includes an Eco-Pure additive that breaks down the materials over twenty years in a landfill or compost pile
  • Rubber sole secures your stance with an active tread pattern and is made from blend of natural and recycled rubbers
  • The footbed is made from PU and latex foam for a contoured fit that gives you better cushioning and control of your board
  • All glues are water-based to reduced dependence on petroleum and reduce harmful fumes for factory workers
  • All packaging is made from recycled and eco-friendly materials

Bottom Line: A truly eco-friendly shoe that pleases your vegan-skater lifestyle.

I am the mother of a serious 14 year old skateboarder, and we're also vegans. My son goes through normal suede skate shoes in about a month's time or less even. I'm wondering if the Simple D-Solve Shoe that says it was "skate-inspired" is something worth my spending all that money on, or will I just have to turn around in about a week's time (due to the fact that they are so wonderfully biodegradable) to purchase another pair?

I have a 14 year old brother, so I know where you are coming from when you say he goes through shoes in a month! I haven't personally owned a pair of Simple brand shoes, but from other reviews and comments I've read, I believe you have a good chance of him outgrowing these before they fall apart.

These are my first pair of Simple shoes. I love how comfortable they are and that they are such green shoes. I would certainly recommend them.
