They are giving away free special edition “Stop Global Warming” sandals, with any purchase (including the clearance stuff). They are also currently offering Free Shipping. These sneakers and shoes are not only “green”, but I have found them to be well made and comfortable. I have had a pair of their sneakers for several years and I love them.  This deal is a great way to try this environmentally concious brand out.

There were a number of nice items available in the clearance section. Several handbags, as well as, some men’s footwear were also offered. Any of them would work out to a great deal. Outside the clearance section they have some very cute options for kids, and a wide array of great casual shoes and bags.

These are the sandals that Simple Shoes is offering for free (reg. price $65).

I purchased a pair of clearance sneakers and the sandals. With discount code and free shipping, my total was only $9.90.

The deal is running through May 31ts, or until supplies last. They still had the sandals available in many sizes, at the time of this post.

The code for the free sandals is: HappyEarthDay09

Greater public demand for ”green” cotton, has brought on price increases in organic cotton, thus helping spur greater allotted acreage. The OTA forecasted an even more significant increase in the farming of American organic cotton next year. Keep in mind U.S. organic cotton, only comprises approximately 2.1% of the world’s organic cotton production, but this is certainly a wonderful sign of the times and how consumers have positively impacted the cotton industry.
