My sweet spot is my feet not hurting. Hoka shoes and asics gel nimbus are the bomb. I dont think the sole needs to be thick. It does need to be squishy. It needs to catch your weight. Displace pressure away from the joints.

@roseanvil now that you show spanish shoes...take a look at Sendra boots The BEST by price bye far

As others said, hemp is very strong but very coarse. Not very suitable for direct contact to skin unless VERY softened, thats why the inner cotton layer. Definetily a great material for uppers. And I dig the ideia of environmental-friendly shoes for casual use, it makes them also easier to repair by yourself (well, at least the glues are way less dangerous to use)

This gives the same vibe as asking why rose leaves don't smell like roses

Rose petals or the leaves on the stem?

Hemp has been used for a long time to make rope and other items. Usually its a fairly durable material.

Hemp is really strong, we use hemp rope in our theatre, where I work, on our fly system, really strong and reliable stuff.

@@kart182 it's a lot thicker and heavier and has to hold more weight that will move around more, also there's probably stricter safety standards too expecially around being fire retardant. It's all about use cases tho, u wouldn't want hemp rope climbing bc it's irritating to the skin and heavier than synthetics.

When you burn it,does it smell like weed?..because I wouldn't think it would..and I didn't understand why he assumed that

From my understanding, hemp just doesn’t feel soft as cotton and takes a little more time to get soft vs how cotton is right off the plant

Hemp has been used for a few decades for "eco friendly" clothing when heavily processed and softened. Historically it's use was for rope and sacks and items that require a strong, relatively rough natural fibre and it is still used for this. Another similar, plant based material is Jute/Hessian/Burlap which also was used for the same sort of products.

Two types of people... those who admit to using it, and those who lie about not using it. 😁

I completely agree about the width problem with barefoot shoes. Can't wait for you to find a good one.

Hemp smells like grass, the illegal part of it smells dank. Hemp rope smells super grassy and is very strong, and I had two hemp backpacks in college that lasted years compared to the old Jansports. It's a really great heavy and durable cloth fiber that has a bit of a yellowish tint so dyes look a little weird on it. Still, it's a pretty fast growing plant that doesn't use as much resources to grow as other industrial fibers (cotton, trees). I think it'd make an amazing and super durable cloth for jeans or cloth shoes, but not for softer items of clothing like shirts.

I had a hemp pair of Adidas some years ago and I bought them to the exact size but damn they do not stretch at all I would suggest always buying at least a half size up

You should do a video on the duradero boots I really like that you get a free resole and you can try a couple different sizes when you order them. It’s a really cool idea I’ve never seen any company try anything like that.

I have worn Wildlings, three different Vivobarefoot, some barefoot Altra boots. By far my favorite zero drop bear foot shoe is the gym green African ranger.

Thanks for going back to the original format.

I have 100% shirts, bedding etc and I love them. Cotton/hemp mixed are awesome too as well

I had a pair of hemp Vans somewhat similar to these back in the day, and they were and still are one of my favorites shows ever. Unfortunately, I only found them that once and that was it, but this might be the replacement I've been waiting on.

Do you think that Hemp & Cannabis are the same plant? I've had hemp shoes & a hemp jean jacket, (late 90's) both wore out at a normal pace.

They are the same species. In English apparently y'all call Hemp just the cultivar of Cannabis Sativa with low THC but Hemp is Cannabis.

perfect shoe jim green shoellie (custom) built on the barefoot last.

Those eab lites are sick

you do know that espadrills (UK navy sailor shoes) were traditionally made of hemp, as were the sails, the waterproof wax the rope, the uniforms, the hamoks, blankets and linens and even the lamp oil!

I really like my Vessi shoes, worth a look.

Have had Hemp shoes before, a pair of iPaths and Adidas Comptons. The Adidas lasted for almost a decade and I put a ton of miles on those shoes. The iPaths fell apart quickly.

they look dope

Review request: Grounds Moopie Trainers. Ridiculous bubble soul shoes. Saw them all over Tokyo when I was there last year. Would LOVE to see a deconstruction + your thoughts on them.

Considerations for casual sneakers: Allbirds: Might be kinda flipperish, but they are comfy and durable. Nothing New: Basically Thursday Boots’ take on Converse. I’d really love to get your take on these shoes.

I just realized that you were specifying barefoot sneakers. Carry on.

You should check out the Avia 830/816 and Puma Ralph Sampson for this series. They're perfect casual shoes for me.

I hope more clothing and shoes use hemp or at least blends since they are more durable than cotton.

It would be really cool if you could cut apart a pair of Dundas boots! Either their Gunnerside 42 or one of their mountaineer boots. The Gunnerside 42 is based on Joachim Rønnebergs boots, which were used during the Rjukan sabotage mission during WWII. As you are interested in the history of boots, these are steeped in important history. I think it would be a really interesting video.

Make a video with the Nike Air Max plus TN bro

A few more good options are the Lems Primal Zen and Vivobarefoot Gobi Sneakers.

Can you revisit the Ecco brand? I’ve owned a few boots and noticed the ‘oiled Nubuck’ classification on a few that felt smooth like you experienced, and just different leathers for different colors of the same shoe and I would really like to know your thoughts on why that is and how good their leather really is in general Also the soft 7 would make a great entry onto this list or the plain white sneaker list too and would love to see a pair cut in half

Video suggestion: Corcoran Tanker boots. These boots are issued to Tankers and Cav scouts in the Army. They are not a traditional combat boot, and are not recommended for rucking. However, they're very comfortable due to them not having laces. They use straps, and the boot is designed for sitting or standing in an Armored vehicle for hours upon hours.

would like to see a review of the new vans ave 2.0 looks well made

Do Allbirds please!

Dude, i've been using that gerber knife for years and have only met one other person who carries it. There are dozens of us! 😂

You should cut some of those Carol Christian Poell boots with the drippy soles. Would be really interesting to see what’s inside and if they are worth the super high price tag

Id love to see a comparison of Adidas Shell Toe superstar vs their Hemp version.

I have a pair of kiziks in a wide size (they are not barefoot but have the foot shaped last) and I got called out on by my dad about how they don't look really good. But I think if you're wearing pants that are looser fitting they are not as disproportionate. But as someone with mega wide feet this definitely has an appeal.

Hemp is an excellent material! It does have significant advantages and benefits over cotton and canvas. Seriously, look it up and be prepared for the deep dive!

I have really wide feet and as you mentioned splay in this video I personally found them to be a tiny bit too narrow mainly in the middle of the shoe. what is sometimes called the waist of the shoe. So I am wondering if these have that issue or not. I mean they do not look like they do.

While on Spanish footwear, have you thought of trying Panama jack ? They are the local competition to timberland.

Hi. I have a really old knife with a stacked leather handle that is very dark. If I sand it down what should I coat it with? Thanks.

The natural thing is kinda cool. Plastics are getting kinda out of control and probably going to hurt us at some point.

Need to do a pair of Twisted X Driving Mocs

Do they make the micro adjust belt in a 1.5" width and a non gold buckle???

You should check the Peu line from Camper

I'm looking for the same thing in my casual shoes. What about taking a look at Flux Footwear shoes next? They look a bit less flippery than most other barefoot shoes

You should do keens Cincinnati boot and San Jose boots

i have very wide, high volume feet. the wider toe box is non-negotiable. hemp cloth is completely legal in the us

The extra toe at 10:17 cracked me up. I had to double tap back 10 seconds and see that again. 😂

Can you please review and cut open to see the Nike Airmax Infinity 2 please it's the sneaker I want to buy but I'm not sure if it's worth the money .

Sanuks has some cool hemp shoes(sandles) 🎉

I think you're suppose to roll it up in zigzag and smoke it to find out if it's hemp??

Still watching, but back in the 90s there was a big hemp phase where major shoe companies like Nike were making hemp shoes. I had a pair. They were nike basketballish shoes with a almost 2 inch Velcro strap across the forefoot that had a Nike check on it. If I find the shoe on the internet I'll update name. But at the time it was popular with multiple companies. They were similar to the Nike air mission or the Nike air veer

review the merrell trail gloves 7

Hemp rope as been Sailors perfered choice until the newer nylons and such were invented

I like this video much better than the last few you’ve done with that other guy not that he’s bad but I like watching your analysis of it

Try ‘Xero Ridgeway Mesh Low’

Get some Allbirds!!

Honestly Hemp fibers is a good material to use it's pretty strong

I've had puma and Adidaa....and actually maybe Nike....hemp trabs before now!

I have such wide feet these look great. Tho, id probly switch out the insole

I would like so much to buy a number of shoes over the internet, brands like this one that is not available worldwide in shops. Too bad i learned the hard way that the shoes are only to be bought before you tried them.

you wouldn't have to 'invent' the new buckling and adjustable system if you would make belts with the buckle like the ones used by German Bundeswehr for their pants. and boots look nice, like a better converse for the gym

The problem I have with most shoes from Europe, wear a size 12 American, and they seldom make them that large.

finally a hemp shoe but not the 8000 kicks which up until now I thought 8000 kicks was the only hemp shoe.

S/O to the downstairs neighbor 💨

These look just like the Amazon “whitin” brand shoes I got, they are canvas but only costed forty bucks.

Im the opposite I have 5E wide feet which makes shoe shopping rough because most shoes are M or D.

It’d be great if they would a double thick soles.

My dude, its the stalks that yield fiber. The flowers are what smells, the same is true of qny kind of like rose for instance - the stalk isnt aromatic. The hemp you smoke is not the stalk it's the flower.

But can it kickflip

I think that insole is coconut shell. Not hemp. The upper is hemp.

Daily reminder that weston is not exaggerating when he says he has very narrow feet. Take whatever he says and mentally add a size; if it's just right for him, it's too narrow for most people, if its a bit too wide its just right for most people, and so on

You should do Be Lenka/Barebarics I’m curious about them but I think they would fit your criteria

they look so comfortable but step on 1 nail and you're done lol

Wow I can get shoes that smell like gorge that’s awesome

Thanks for this Video. Nice to see some unusual fabrics like hemp 😁 Pls check out the Brand "Veja" in this series. At least here in Germany you see them pretty often. It's an interesting brand, I think.

This is never going to smell like the flower bud of its relative no matter how much of it u burn its a different part of the flower.

I think they look cool, but aren't necessarily for all day comfort....

I love these barefoot brands that don't go up to a size 14. I'll stick to sneakers

his channel gives those cheaply made 40 minute ad shows from the 90s

the .3 percent would never be in those stalk fibers - ha ha ! Only in the flowers .

Can you PLEASE do Alpinestars suer victory boots? They’re icons that everyone recognizes but nobody knows what they’re called. Get back to good boots!

You should take a look at the Archibald Ultralight sneakers or slides. Grab a pair with lactae hevea soles. Near zero drop. Super squish. Decent leather. Well constructed (unless their workshop phoned it in again). If you order them now, you may even get them in 2025 😂

Try some "Hey Dudes".

I gave a thumbs on the vid just for calling “Mary Jane”, Micheal Jordan. Awesome.

I have not tried any barefoot shoes or boots and don't really care to. But I will always support hemp made products. 👍

The algorithm burns hemp daily and nightly.

Tell me youve never smoked weed without telling me you never smoked weed

The new trend, sell you junk and tell you it's gold. Who am i kidding, they been doing this for years.😂

Don't bogart those shoes, my friend.

These should cost 50 bucks

Finally a shoe with room for all my extra toes!

Brah... It's basically a overpriced canvas shoes. 😂 A lost opportunity to use hemp leaves as the sole design.

I wonder if the insole was coconut fiber and not hemp, when I went to the website and reviewed the materials, it seemed like it was the coconut fiber. Cool shoes and a great concept, they have a large variety of shoes, some much more conventional, others more experimental than the model you reviewed.

Wonder if Adidas would like a word over the name
