Conscious options when it comes to footwear and sneakers are slim, but one is effortlessly achieved through a joint collaboration between Adidas and Parley for the Oceans.
Enter Adidas x Parley for the Oceans, together creating a high performance sneaker from recycled and reclaimed ocean plastics and debris. Partners in crime, partners in the environment. It doesn’t quite roll off the tongue, but this joint effort to make shoes out of plastic waste is an unusual mix too, people might say. We therefore have decided to list some of the shoes available and other models yet to hit the market, including this collaborative effort by Adidas and Parley, that give you the chance to make a conscious decision when purchasing your sneakers.
The unexpected (or was is expected?) collaboration between Adidas and Parley sprung up after Adidas shifted its focus to the Boost style and sole technology: the Adidas x Parley shoe is no exception. Well, except for the fact that both the yarn, laces, heel counter and webbing, lining, footbed, and midfoot overlays are all made out of recycled and reclaimed ocean plastic.
