What shoes are these?

[LesserKnown]

I'm trying to find a pair of shoes I saw a while back. I cant's remember much, but I feel like they were a smaller south american company. They only had girls shoes, and a limited amount of selections, maybe 7 or so.

Now the important part. The soles had a design on them, something like grass or a plant. I feel like the idea behind the shoes was something environmentally friendly. They were also unusual in color and design.

Does this sound familiar to anybody?

sorry, also posted in the help section...

Hi, there--

I think I really need more clues. I know of a couple of shoe brands whose soles have a unique sole like the one you describe. The closest thing that comes to mind is El Naturalista--here's an example of the sole:

You can find this brand on Zappos or Endless, and I think at Nordstrom, too.

The other brand I know with a unique sole is Born, and the soles can look like this:

or this:

or this:

Plus, they're often made in Mexico.

When I hear environmentally friendly, my first thought is Terra Plana. Their soles are definitely unique, although they don't have the leaves you've described. They are unusual in color and design, as well.

Please, give us more hints! Where did you see them? When? Anything more about them you can tell us?

None of those are them. Hmm, I saw them online. Their designs I can't really remember too clearly. I feel like some of them had a docksider look to them, and some of them were high top looking, but not sneakers. And the colors were bright, and I feel like some had check pattern inside, but I may be remembering a different shoe on that one.

I'm pretty sure it's a somewhat new and small company.

found them! -http://www.keepcompany.com/

and i guess some are pretty sneakery

thanks though

Aha. They are kind of sneaker-y. Never heard of this company. And you can't see the soles on the web--that's not fair!

I do like El Naturalista, though, and I know they also have some kind of environmentalist mission. I'm pretty sure I'll end up buying a pair.

Actually, you can:
KEEP COMPANY
Scroll down, and you'll see the sole. It is quite pretty (and distinctive).
I'm not too sure about the shoes themselves, though. That said, I rarely wear sneakers so it's no surprise they're not my style.
