Nike Shoe Made Out of Recycled Materials

Posted on 18 March 2008

Nike launches a new shoe in February 2008 which uses recycled scrap waste from Nike’s own production facilities. You wouldn’t think a Nike shoe made out of scrap would look good, but it does. Enough that the Pheonix Suns point guard Steve Nash endorses them. The new Nike ‘Trash Talk’ is on retail for $100, a shoe that clearly illustrates how a company like Nike can spin it’s scrap into gold.

    No not yet, this is the only shoe, but Nike is considering coming out with a whole line of ‘trash talk’ shoes.

    All those squares of recycled materials – leather? Does Nike make non-leather shoes? Recycled man-made, please. Future Trash Talk Shoe idea – The Vegan.

    Thank you Nike, now, assure us your workers are well fed, rested and have basic medical attention.

    So, yay, a recycled shoe! Made in a Chinese “Happy Camp” I am sure. Nike needs to wake up. So do the people who buy this crap. You can’t BUY green! Green means consuming less altogether.
