The video says Pepsi, Evian, and Coca-Cola are using Loop resin. The companies are not yet using Loop’s resin, however, they plan to when Loop’s South Carolina plant is operational. Insider regrets the error.
In 2015 Adidas partnered with Parley for the Oceans to turn marine pollution like plastic bottles into shoes and sportswear. Like its Ultraboost and Alphaboost shoes, the two companies have prevented over 2,800 tons of plastic from reaching the ocean. And in 2019 Adidas expects to make 11 million pairs of shoes with recycled marine waste. But how are these shoes made?
Plastic bottles that contain PET are broken down into plastic flakes then cut into small resin pellets. These pellets are melted to create a filament, which is spun into what Adidas calls Ocean Plastic, a replacement for virgin polyester. Each item in the Parley collection is made of at least 75% recycled plastic. Adidas is also developing a 100% recyclable shoe called Futurecraft Loop, which is expected to be available in 2021.

Longest 3 minute video I’ve watched

That's one days worth of plastic from this country. America gets blamed for pollution but facts tell a different story.
With a staggering 2,000 tonnes of plastic flowing down it every day, the Citarum River in Java, Indonesia is believed to be dirtiest in the world.
It's not adeeeedas. What the hell
I’ll be buying more from Adidas now. #saveourplanet
Ahh very useful knowledge
Wo!
While its great they are helping clean up the planet, synthetic fiber is still harmful to both us and our environment. We need to use sustainable natural materials.
adidas shredding shoes like that
Adidas Is making what is beeing made for long years. Thanks for the information.
Every idiot sees what he wants
Then shouldn’t they be worth the cost if plastic bottles??…
this is good
1) saves adidas money
2) saves the planet
Wait then why are their shoes so damn expensive lol maybe they just want to save money by using plastic. Either way, it's a win win for them; they save money, and they receive a good image 🤷♂️
My yeezy oreos are made of plastic worth almost 900$
Now, imagine all that plastic could be turned into something new. Not just shoes.
Imagine, If shops woul charge extra money for each plastic bottle sold, unless customer brings one back.
Plastic pollution can be stopped.
Does that mean Kim and Kylie can turn into shoes?
Racist Atheists
So basically Adidas is selling us used plastic made shoes aka zero capital investment and we are gonna buy it with thousands . Ahh that makes total sence
What if JBL makes from the rest of the plastic boxes and headphones?
Why is the first image they show a pair of Adidas shoes being stredded for recycling. That's the opposite of this video subject. THEY ARE TURNING BOTTLES INTO SHOES, NOT TURNING SHOES INTO BOTTLES. SILLY!
If they did this I’m down giving double the price
Now I can proudly use adidas shoes 👟
Adidas recycling our garbage to sale it back to us . There the real 🐐

Ad dedes triggered me
Nothing more than propoganda !
Fact: no one search for this video
Roast battle you're shoes are plastic ooohhhhh
The information is really helpful, but the illustration is somehow disappointing
Maybe if adidas didn’t charge 150-200 dollars per pair they would be able to get rid of more plastic. But of course they won’t do that
You know what would be impressive?
Turning a shoe into a bottle
Adidas is vsco vsco vsco vsco

Imagine, people start throwing their shoes into the ocean now.😂
Guy: I'm wearing Nikes what you wearing bruh
