Does this shoe have leather somewhere on it? The description says it is canvas, bamboo, plant cellulose, cork, and 40% recycled rubber construction. But the "Tech Specs:" mention suede. Thanks for any help.

Okay, I found the answer myself...Yes it has leather. It says "metal free" which I imagine means the heavy metals that are used in the tanning process. Conventional tanning uses, among other things, chromium, a heavy metal that has been linked to cancer and, once it is in water courses, is difficult to clean up. (not green)
