From the Spanish brand " ECOALF " comes a pair of pop flip flops made from discarded tires!

ECOALF, a sustainable fashion brand from Spain that has been available in Japan since this spring, has released flip flops made from recycled waste tires. A total of 11 colors for men and women are now available at ECOALF stores, the official ECOALF online store, andSanyo Eye Store. In conjunction with the launch of the tire flip flops, a pop-up store for ECOALF will appear at Shonan T-SITE, and will run until September 6, 2020 (Sun.).

EcoAlph’s vanilla-scented “Tire Flip Flops” are a gem of ease and durability for walking!

The pop design of the ” Tire Flip Flops ” from ECOALF, which began its Japan rollout this spring, is now available at the Shonan T-SITE. This practical and fashionable item was created with the aim of protecting the environment and enjoying summer style. Discarded tires made of rubber, which are said to be difficult to recycle, have been gorgeously transformed. Since tires are used as the material, they have a moderate weight, are easy to walk on, and have outstanding durability. In addition, the scent of vanilla essence is added at the particulation stage, so the unique smell of the tire is not bothersome. The brand message “Because there is no planet B” and the fact that the products are made with clean recycling methods are written on the packaging, conveying the brand’s commitment and the importance of environmental conservation. This item, which will be useful not only at the beach but also for daily use in summer, is a perfect gift, so why don’t you check it out?

The ” Tire Flip Flops ” are a sustainable product that took Ecoalf two years to develop.

Tires, the raw material for EcoAlp’s sandals, are expensive to dispose of and are often buried in landfills or dumped at the bottom of the ocean, creating a serious environmental problem. In addition, discarded tires are one of the most difficult wastes to sort and recycle because they contain many impurities such as metals. ECOALF, a Spanish company, spent two years developing a technology to remove such impurities from discarded tires. Powdered waste tires are processed by heat, without using crimping materials, and recycled as a material for flip-flops.
