How did the Nike Reuse-A-Shoe program begin?
Nearly two decades ago, Nike began looking for a way to reduce the company’s environmental footprint and reduce the amount of shoes that ended up in landfills. Nike first started by collecting athletic shoes at key retail locations and shortly thereafter teamed up with other recycling centers to establish shoe collections in communities across the country. See Reuse-A-Shoe history for a detailed timeline.
