Designed by footwear brand Feit, the 'Hand Sewn High' is a line of sustainable shoes that ticks all the right boxes: beauty, craft and sustainability. The brand only offers footwear that is hand-sewn by craftsmen using only chemical-free leathers and dyes. The new line of footwear boasts the Feit classic, a fantastic new minimalist design that looks hipster -- it has visible stitching running down the back of the heel -- and comes in a creamy suede color.
What makes these shoes special is the fact that they are redefining eco-fashion. Known for being a little wishy-washy when it comes to craftsmanship and design aesthetic, eco-fashion will now earn itself a new rep with these sleek and crafty looking shoes -- that also try to save the planet!
