DALLAS, May 26, 2009 / FW/ — To most, summer means the beach but for water sports aficionados, it means it’s time to ride the wave. But, you don’t have to be a surfer to enjoy the sport. Surfing is also a spectator sport and you will fit right in with the crowd in the surf-inspired ecoSNEAKS by surfer/photographer Joe Curren.

After a highly successful collaboration in 2007, Simple Shoes, makers of ecoSNEAKS has teamed up once more with Joe Curren to create the Careen and Cartwheel styles for men and women, respectively. The images are from Joe’s collection of photos from his travels around the world.

And like all ecoSNEAKS shoes, both the Careen and the Cartwheel are printed on 100% certified organic cotton and feature recycled car tire outsoles.

Yes, that outsole used to be a car tire! Made with certified organic cotton woven linings and printed certified organic cotton uppers, the ecoSNEAKS shoes are 100% sustainable. The shoes also feature ortholite / recycled car tire pedbeds and vulcanized rubber sidewall, toecap, and heelcap.
