Nike shoe recyling
Jeff Beaudoin points out that the Nike outlet in Kittery has a bin set up to recycle used athletic shoes. Nike accepts any brand as long as they are actual athletic shoes (running shoes, sneakers, etc.). No shoes containing metal; no cleats or dress shoes or sandals.
Go to http://www.nikereuseashoe.com to see how the shoes are broken down into three parts and recycled into components of basketball and tennis courts and other sports surfaces.
