Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree! (Faguo)

Paris,
7 Rue Joseph Dijon (google maps)

Now when you hear the words "ethical shoes" you may at first be skeptical.  Yet another supposed conscious sneaker? In one word, yes, there is an up and coming shoes that is just so and I would bet is going to make great sales because they got it right.

Take two young students, the two creators of the brand, Frederic Mugnier and Nicolas Rohr, whilst still in school are paying their tuition through sales.

Yes, even ethical shoes can make money. Behind Faquo is a strong concept and brand brilliantly connected. Now, where's the green, well, for each pair of Faguo purchased, a tree is planted!

The style of these shoes is on the rather simple side, they combine an effective sobriety that is just what I am looking for today, discrete and clever, and just the right sort of dandy.  The light cloth material is versatile and blends easily with different outfits, in different situations with different people, and for different effect.

They come in 4 colors (chocolate, white, blue, gray) and the little button is hewn from coconut hull - Let your toes be treated while trees get planted.
