    Salomon (Salomon) will turn running shoes into ski boots through recycled materials


    .


    Recycling is nothing new


    .


    Salomon product designers have spent more than a year working on the idea as part of a new sustainability initiative


    .


    Guillaume Mey\zenq, Vice President of Salomon Footwear, said: "We recognize that we must improve the environment by significantly reducing our impact on the planet when making footwear


    .


    The first step in production is to make shoes from a single material


    .


    The workers then mix the recycled TPU with new TPU and put the material into an injection molding machine to produce the new ski boots


    .


    "The concept more than triples the lifespan of Salomon's materials," Concept Shoe wrote in a press release


    .


    Concept Shoe and the "Playful Game Project"

    Salomon's new shoes are part of its "Play to Play" initiative, which aims to encourage consumers to be environmentally responsible when exercising outdoors


    .


            Saving material in the production of running and ski shoes would be a huge help in achieving this goal
    .

            Salomon hopes to bring the concept to footwear in 2021
    .
    This is also part of Salomon's other goal of designing 100% of its new products based on circular economy principles by 2025
