Coclico takes the opportunity of Earth Day to renew our commitment to the place we call home. “We believe style can meet sustainability. We’re working to make our style-driven line more environmentally-friendly. We’re working to make a smaller carbon footprint” noted Sandra Canselier, Coclico’s creator.

Another place that carries a nice range of Coclico styles, plus shoes by other environmentally aware shoe designers, is Ped Shoes (http://www.pedshoes.com), which has become my favorite place to shop online due to multiple great experiences with their customer service. I wish every online biz could be as pleasant as Ped!
