The Soles Of These Shoes Are Made From Recycled Gum
Gumdrop collects gum that would otherwise end up smeared on the sidewalk and turns it into plastic.
The blue soles of a new brand of shoes are made from an unlikely source: recycled chewing gum. The shoes, which are expected to launch later this year, are the latest project from a U.K. designer who has spent nearly a decade working on ways to turn discarded gum from sticky sidewalk blight into something useful.
