Ethically sound el-cheapo sandshoe




As much as i do love my cheap as chips $9.95 Big W sand shoes (as featured in my very first post), in my heart I know there's a reason they're $9.95 and it's probably not only because they're made of canvas and rubber. I've just discovered Gideon's shoes, an 'ethical sneaker brand' with working conditions in line with Australian standards of employment. Another reason to upgrade to Gideon's shoes - $5 from each pair (they retail $39.95) goes to HipHoperations desert project, a programme which aims to empower young indigenous people through music. They're also a fine looking unisex canvas shoe in a colour for every day of the week.

Buy Gideon's shoes online
, or at General Pants.
