Here’s a preview of Element’s Spring ’09 footwear line under their Power to the Planet initiative. With the recent Obama Mclandslide, a renewed sense of social/environmental consciousness rising from a post Bush administration debauch hangover, and the dire fact that we can no longer ignore the challenges facing our world, look for a lot more sustainable resource themed products from all your favorite brands soon.

In the meantime, Element leads the way by offering up shoes both constructed of and by means that limit their burden on Mother Nature’s delicate till. Like Barack, these will be available in the immediate future.
