Hello all,
What is the consensus here on the new "hemps", think they are actually made with hemp?
Has nike lost the balls to openly state the word "hemp" having had no problem doing so in the past? Or are they putting something out that *looks* like hemp and taking advantage of rasta colors and the 4/20 holiday season?
Seems strange they wouldn't SAY hemp in the write up, yet allude to it strongly by saying it is "reminiscent" of sustainable ship rope.
In chat, Nike Customer Service claimed NO HEMP. *However*, she said they include burlap. Burlap can be made from hemp..
In the official write up, they say the shoes are made from "a heavy-duty raw canvas". Canvas is usually cotton these days, but traditionally was hemp...
I'm gonna be pissed if I buy them and find out it's hoax-hemp. Can always return, but would rather figure this out sooner than later.
