Hemp, Linen And Cotton For Canvas Shoes

Flax, hemp and linen along with cotton can all be described as canvas. Durability is crucial when it comes to works of art. Some ancient masterpiece that sells for many millions of pounds clearly mustn’t be susceptible to degradation.

The weakest of those materials is cotton. We all know how a cotton shirt gets thinner after a regular washing machine clean over the years. But a canvass shirt would certainly not be as comfortable by a very long way.

Canvas shoes are some of the most comfortable items of footwear. It never ceases to amaze that the natural products we use in footwear and clothing has changed little over the centuries.

Despite the manmade products such as nylon and plastic, the belief in the sixties that they would make cotton obsolete never materialised.

Think of canvas slip-on casual shoes and espadrilles come to mind along with summer strolls along Mediterranean sandy shores.

So, when you read about Toms canvas shoes or another brand such as rocket dog canvas shoes you know these will be ultra-cool summer casuals.

This sort of footwear becomes as well fitted as a pair of socks. They’re not just for the back of the wardrobe till summers hols arrive. Around the house they are many people’s favourite loafer.

In fact, loafer is the word when it comes to conjuring up this casual lifestyle. Shoes are a part of our dress code. You wouldn’t wear canvas casuals with a suit and tie to the office. Just as you wouldn’t wear smart leather black lace-ups with socks to the beach party.

It’s estimated that women in the UK have close to thirty pairs of footwear in the wardrobe and men not too far behind that number.

With winter boots, office shoes and trainers as well as sports shoes and loafers, there should always be at least one or two pairs of canvas casuals.
