adidas ZX 500

People pour plastics into oceans like there's no tomorrow. It comes up to more than eight million tons in a year. There's probably no trick or a single solution that could resolve the situation, which we as humans got into, with a snap of a finger. We can fight the big battle with smaller steps though. Such example is the result of the collaboration between adidas and Parley For The Oceans - sneakers that are made from plastic bottles pulled out from the sea.

The first trainers bearing the name ZX 500 were introduced in 1984 and captivated the whole running community with its biomechanically perfect design. They have now been recreated with a classic cross-country appearance and the iconic three stripes on the side.
