Recycle Jeans Into Funky Sandals
June 24 2007

md_recycle your jeans.jpg Do you have a much loved pair of old jeans that you can’t bear to part with? Well now you can send them for recycling and have them made into a pair of funky sandals!

Not only is that brilliant from a landfill perspective, but the sandals are designed to improve posture and make your legs feel like they are walking on sand so they keep us fit too!

The sandals are made in Cumbria so the Carbon footprint is one of the lowest ever for footwear. They are made in one of the last few shoe factories remaining in the UK, bought by staff when the original was closed and manufacturing shipped overseas (now where have I heard that before?). They also employed many of the staff so kept employment in our fantastic country. A BIG well done to Recycle your jeans.

I have sent in my details so they can send me a bag and address label to post my jeans to them. I am SO excited about getting my new sandals
