I don’t have a car and I’m a devoted recycler, but deep down I know there’s so much more I could be doing to be more eco-friendly. That’s why I jumped at the chance to replace the worn-out sneakers I’d been living in all summer with a pair of
Merrell’s new
“Undyed” kicks. Get this: these
sneakers are made from 100% recycled mesh upper with a 40% recycled mesh lining. Even the laces are made from 100% recycled material. Amazing, right?
If you’re thinking, “No way I’d wear sneakers made from that much recycled stuff,” you’ve got it all wrong. Much to my surprise, not only do Merrell’s
MTL Skyfire Undyed sneakers look good, they feel good on my feet, too! They’re super lightweight yet supportive and the sole is super-grippy which I love for my long daily walks. I try to walk for at least one hour every day and since I started wearing these
sneakers I can go for 90 minutes and longer without any discomfort at all.
Now if you’re like me, you tend to stay away from white sneakers because they can be such a pain to clean. But
Merrell’s new “Undyed” sneakers were purposefully left undyed. By eliminating the dyeing process, the brand uses less water and energy in the manufacturing process. Thankfully, you’ll be happy to know these
sneakers wash up nicely in the washing machine. I washed mine on warm and let them air dry overnight. They were as good as new the next day!
Women’s MTL Skyfire Undyed ($110)
If you want to reduce your eco-footprint without sacrificing style or comfort, Merrell just made it so easy for you. These are the
sneakers to splurge on for fall.
