OFFICIAL REMYXX 100% Recyclable landfill free sneakers thread

[trethousandgt]

So I just got a heads up about this company a few days ago and it will be very interesting to see what happens with them.  This type of a line is long overdue!  Check out the interview I did with the CEO below and make sure to check out SHARK TANK on ABC May 18th 2012 8PM EST as the CEO will be appearing on the show.

If you care about the environment and are into sneakers then at some point you probably researched 100% recyclable sneakers. Okabashi has a line of recyclable sandals but no one has a line of 100% recyclable landfill free sneakers, that was, until now.

With more than 300 million pairs of shoes thrown away last year, in the U.S. alone (soles4souls.org), REMYXX[emoji]8482[/emoji] is taking matters into their own feet.

It was in June of 2009 that husband and father, Gary Gagnon, had the idea for a 100% recyclable sneaker. While preparing to take out the trash, Gary saw a pair of his wife’s old shoes and two beaten pairs of his boy’s sneakers in the regular trash, right next to the recycling bin. As an avid, suburban recycler, he thought to himself, “wouldn’t it be nice if all the worn-out shoes that get thrown away, ending up in our landfills, could instead be recycled?
