Awesome Kicks: the green bball shoe




Nike Considered Design, is Nike's movement to combine sustainability principles with the newest innovations for sport. The Nike Huarache 09 uses Environmentally Preferred Materials (EPMs), with a high recycled content, wherever possible. The stitching details and embroidery create structural support, eliminating the need for excessive overlays, embellishments and backing materials. A smarter pattern design allowed for a cutting efficiency of 70 percent on the upper, substantially reducing waste. Look for the Nike Huarache 09 in stores soon.
