Everyone loved the Crocs style of shoes, yet here is a greener alternative, these are made from old tires, which are renown for being hard to get rid of, they cannot be burned or disposed of in any eco friendly way, they the material is really versatile and long lasting, so why waste it, especially when there are 290 scrap tires in the US alone per year.

The tires are broken up and then remolded into what is required, in this case soles for shoes, seems logical, if the material is suitable for tires, then is must be great fro shoes.
