Rocky: Where should I start? Anyone who know anything about shoes know that the Italians are revered for their exceptionally constructed hand-made foot-gloves. What happens when you take that concept and stich it together with respect for the environment? A beautiful idea, and noteworthy shoes happens!!! A far as I know, U ROADS is the only shoe company with an actual certificate from the United Nations Environment Programme. When fashion meets green, Rocky meets excitement.
THE DEAL: Handmade in both Italy and Spain, U ROADS shoes are made from canvas, leather, and recycled TYRES. Shapes, cutting, stitching, soles and washing of the leather (softened via special washing for additional comfort) are all executed with the Italian handcraft tradition in mind. Style is kept simple; The material is the focus here.
A lil something for the femmes; fashionistas only please..hahah.
I personally believe any firm making past a certain amount of profit should donate 10% -minimum- to a cause of their choosing. Or at least incorporate recycled material in production whenever posssible and practical. However, most businesses will seldom venture outside of what's in immediate consumer-demand. And because of that, I tip my hat to those at U ROADS for being proactive, not only in fashion but morally as well! Kudos!!!!
