Fashion That’s Fun and Environmentally Friendly? Sign Me Up!

Civic Duty has created a hip shoe that not only appeals to a wide variety of people, but is good to our Mother Earth!

“Civic Duty is a socially-minded footwear company founded upon the simple premise that a leisure shoe can be attractive, fun, and comfortable while causing minimal impact to the environment in its production.” Tyvek^® is a relaxed, breathable material made by DuPont^™ that is used in every product at Civic Duty. Tyvek^® is more commonly recognizable as FedEx envelopes. The Tyvek^® has been dyed and glued with environmentally friendly materials to recycled rubber soles to create one-of-a-kind footwear.

Another great factor about Tyvek^® is it gives the shoe just the right amount of a pre-worn look that eventually turns into a vintage look.

So far Civic Duty is only offered online. With five different styles in a variety of colors to chose from, these FedEx sneakers are a definite must-have for any age or gender for the Spring!

Prices range from $54-$59.
