REDUCE ~ REUSE ~ RECYCLE
About the Nike Grind Program: Newspapers, soda cans, water bottles…and athletic shoes? Recycling sneakers might sound a little out there, but it wasn't so long ago that throwing yesterday's news into today's trash wasn't just normal, but the only thing to do with it. Times have changed – for the better. Today, recycling household waste like plastic, glass, paper and cardboard has become second nature for people around the world.
Our goal is to make recycling athletic shoes second nature as well. With Nike Reuse-A-Shoe bins available at more than 300 locations in the United States, Western Europe, Australia and New Zealand, it's becoming easier than ever to find a shoe recycling facility near you – and even easier to toss your kicks in and let us take care of the rest. Not only is tennis shoe recycling easy to do, but it's also one more way you can become a more conscious consumer and help Nike toward our goal of being a more sustainable company.
