Fascinating - Fascination Shoes

These are way too cool for school! Made of fed express paper, these sneakers are the brainchild of Civic Duty (http://www.civicdutyshoes.com/).  They come in high tops and low tops (which are more like converse), loafers and low tops (similar to keds). And the colors, well see for yourself. Great gifts and great for the environment too! Retail for $59/pr. You can't beat it. There are five collections which are fascination, sensation, exhileration, dedication and illumination. And they can all be worn with or without laces.  I love the fact that they are made from recyclable materials.

The Story Behind Civic Duty:
Civic Duty is more than just a brand. It is a movement that aims to inspire others. In 2009, Steven Weinreb, Founder and Chief Inspiration Officer, lost his job due to the massive economic downturn. Like many Americans, he was concerned about his prospects for a new job when so many were unemployed. He was infuriated watching the Government bail out big corporations who were largely responsible for creating our country's bleak economic climate while everyday folk were left to fend for themselves. His frustration soon became his motivation to start a company that cares. He was determined to prove that we can be successful and still be socially, environmentally and fiscally responsible. And so, Civic Duty was born to bring people together through fashion that is fresh, innovative and with a conscience.

Each year an exclusive shoe will be uniquely designed with 100% of the profits donated to a social cause benefiting those in the United States Now that's a really cool sneaker!
