The OneMoment Shoes by Figtree Factory Studios are part of an extraordinarily new concept of single-use footwear that carries many irresistible benefits and features.
These biodegradable soles are made in Spain and offer a lot of alternatives to the traditional shoe. These feather-light shoes are styled in a convenient slip-on design, so they're perfect for those days when you just want to take a nice, relaxing stroll on the weekend without having to put on chunky shoes. They are also eco-friendly, so you'll be helping out the environment. These single-use shoes are also great for travelers, as they can toss them out on the trip and not worry about taking up much room in suitcases.
The OneMoment Shoes by Figtree Factory Studios were inspired by Amazon Indians, who painted the soles of their feet with natural latex from Hevea trees. The thin footwear layer naturally degraded and returned back to the environment.
