Our HSb editor sent over these Tyvek sneakers from Civic Duty. While the textile is about as durable as it gets, what took me by surprise is how well they looked when crackled onto the silhouette of the shoe. The sneakers are also said to be breathable. We’ll have more on them as we get it. The chukkas look most interesting.
More looks at the Civic Duty Spring 2010 Sneakers after the click.

Very cool, I love the look and cant wait to buy a pair when they come out, I think it’s cool knowing that my purchase will enable another human being in need of a pair of shoes to be able to receive a pair because I bought a pair..
I have a pair of Tyvek shoes from another brand, called Unstitched Utilities.
I like ‘em.
how much is a pair selling at?
The shoes retail at $54 for low tops and $59 for high tops. I will keep you updated as to when the website goes live!
[...] pair of shoes…made of paper. Sounds stupid, right? Well, the makers of (Selectism-approved!) Civic Duty are smarter than me because not only can you draw on their shoes but also wear them during rainy [...]
