Shoes Made from Coffee Waste & Recycled Plastic


First, shoes that are modeled from LEGO blocks.  Now, shoes made from used coffee grinds?  Whaaat??  Apparently, not only are they functional for sport and casual wear but they are waterproof and breathable at the same time.  RENS, the shoe factory, and soon-to-be clothing manufacturing company based out of Helsinki, Finland was inspired by stylish sneakers that can also be sustainable.



According to CBS News, when coffee waste decomposes, it emits methane, a greenhouse gas that is 30% more than carbon dioxide, the unwanted air that we exhale for the trees to absorb.  Check out the 55 second mark of the video link below:




With that notion, it created the RENS Nomad.  The logo pattern looks like the Asics tiger stripes.  Number sign, pound key, hashtag, or whatever you want to call it, the insignia appears to be where the RENS logo was inspired and derived from.  Look at the way the number sign is positioned on the shoe diagonally just like the tiger stripes on the Asics shoes.  They need to come up with their own logo.  What the company needs is to hire a creative (shoe) design artist.

  1. Nice Footwear!

    Recently, I have bought a pair of Jesus sandals for my wife. They look so classic and especially she also like them most.
