eco sandals

I discovered this company by watching my absolute favorite channel Current today. Ecosandals makes these designer sandals out of recycled tire treads. They say that they last 5 years or up to 500,000 miles. : ) I haven't bought a pair YET but I will. They are not really my style but I think what they are doing is so great I will buy a few just to support the cause. I am not the only one who thinks their product/concept is great. Check out their message board here. There is more info about the company below.
