Within the next week, adidas will unleash its new UltraBOOST Uncaged Parley running shoes, the first mass-produced footwear created using recycled plastic recovered from the ocean. The shoe features a Primeknit upper made from a mix of Ocean Plastic, a material created from plastic waste retrieved by Parley coastal interception and clean-up operations in the Maldives (95 percent) and recycled polyester (5 percent). Each pair reuses the equivalent of 11 plastic bottles. The shoe laces, heel cap base material, heel webbing, heel lining and the sockliner cover are also made with recycled materials. Its design is inspired by ocean waves, to reflect the shoeâs unique story and adidas and Parleyâs commitment to end the cycle of pollution in the oceans. UltraBoost Uncaged Parley shoes ($200) will be available for purchase at adidas.com and select adidas retail shops, but only 7,000 pairs have been produced. â 1 Nobody can save the oceans alone. Each of us can play a role in the solution.
