Hike Footwear, committed to promoting foot health, environmental sustainability, and individual empowerment, has officially announced the launch of its new Lorax Barefoot Summer Pack. Alongside that, the company has also confirmed a partnership with WeForest. Anyway, at launch, the Lorax Summer Pack is available in six stunning colorways i.e. Pink, Purple, Green, Red, Black, and Blue, each one well-equipped to fulfill the company’s goal of reducing foot-related issues, and at the same time, staying conscious in regards to the wider environment. Talk about how the new line up of shoes will actually help in enhancing our environment, the answer resides in a host of different initiatives. For starters, we must get into Hike Footwear’s pledge to embrace eco-friendly packaging. This pledge involves banking upon recyclable, biodegradable, and renewable packaging materials to manufacture the end product. Next up, we have the company’s forest restoration efforts that are poised for implementation. Here, the Hike’s partnership with WeForest will spring into action, as it will allow the companies to restore, regenerate, grow, and nurture forests and trees. In essence, the stated pursuit involves WeForest planting and nurturing a tree for every four pairs of Hike Footwear barefoot shoes sold. On top of that, Hike Footwear has also established a sustainable returns process, where we can expect a streamlined and environmentally conscious returns mechanism to get the goods back.
“Our collaboration with WeForest means that with every four pairs of Hike Footwear shoes purchased, a tree is planted, making a positive environmental impact while providing our customers with top-quality, eco-friendly footwear,” said J. Pennarts, Co-CEO of Hike Footwear.
But what makes WeForest an ideal partner? Well, to understand that, one can look at its ability to develop holistic and multi-stakeholder reforestation projects through a Forest and Landscape Restoration approach. The company’s excellence in what it does can be understood once you consider it has, thus far, planted more than 100 million trees and still counting. Beyond, that, WeForest has also successfully regenerated 70,700 hectares of land, all while helping over 784 species to grow and enabling a sizeable 86,000 families.
Coming back Hike-Lorax Summer barefoot shoes, they even bring to the fore comfort, healthy feet, and a natural walking experience. This they are able to do through a breathable material, which reduces irritation and discomfort from various medical conditions like neuropathy and arthritis. Next up, the shoes in question make a point to bestow you with a natural gait, which translates directly to strengthened foot and leg muscles. Markedly enough, such a feature will also benefit, in particular, all those people who suffer from plantar fasciitis. Moving on, Hike’s new shoes are further created with a consideration towards stimulating blood circulation. Hence, they can significantly enhance blood flow, reduce fatigue, and manage any neuropathy symptoms troubling the wearer. Hold on, there is more, as we still haven’t touched upon the presence of a wide toe box. This, on its own, does a lot to promote foot strength and flexibility. Rounding up highlights would be the shoes’ multi-faceted nature. To put it simply, Hike’s promise of a lightweight and breathable material makes it new shoe collection ideal under several use cases, including daily wear and in various foot health conditions.
The all-new Barefoot Summer Pack is now available for purchase in exchange of a price worth $69.95 per pair, and they can be availed from Hike-footwear.com.
“We are excited to introduce the Lorax Barefoot Summer Pack, which not only supports healthy foot movement but also aligns with our sustainability goals,” said O. Van Vilet, CEO of Hike Footwear.
