    Donate worn-out sneakers, do not throw them in the trash. The old sneakers can be repurposed into playground and basketball court surfaces. Find a drop off location at nikereuseashoe.com

    Nice share! Just visited the website and it is really for a good cause. I think that the site and this movement is gonna be a hit if advertise fairly. Actualyl here in our local place, we also had the same program a while back and it was a hit. :D

    I wish I knew this before. I totally dumped a load of sneakers just a few months ago. I am going to have to start my collection again. It sounds like a great idea. I love when things can be reused over and over again.

    That is awesome that they recycle old sneakers and turn them into court surfaces. I haven't checked out the website yet but will do so very soon. I really hope that they have a drop off center near where we live. Nice share, thanks for the info!

    I absolutely hate throwing old shoes away, so that's great old sneakers can be reused for something useful. I hope more people can find out about this because I'm sure thousands of sneakers get trashed everyday.
