An experiment in grassroots capitalism...übercool!
This is what they say..
Blackspot is an affront to the consciousness of hyper capitalism and profit dominated boardroom policies. Blackspot is about more than marketing a brand or deconstructing the meaning of cool – it's about changing the way the world does business. Blackspot is an open-source brand, which means that it can be used by anyone for any purpose at no cost. Blackspot shoes are made with hemp, recycled tires, vegan leather and produced in fair-trade factories. We also sell only to independent retailers worldwide in order to cycle money back into local economies. Our hope is that people with similar philosophies will be inspired by our experiment in grassroots capitalism and start their own business ventures, spreading indie culture and providing ever more alternatives to buying from megacorporations.

Green Gisele
She is the figurehead of Esprit and walked the show for Givenchy last week at the Paris Fashion Week. Despite her busy schedule she finds the time to work for Unep (United Nations Environment Programme) to commit themselves to the preservation of the earth. "Our planet is precious, we must protect her" says Gisele Bündchen. She does this through animation clips on the website www.giseleandthegreenteam.com. Gisele and her green team give children tips on how to deal carefully with water and so on.
“I know that the world will not change through my commitment, but I hope that I can contribute. Doing nothing is not an option.”
