Eco Sandals - Old Tires & Fashion do mix!

Some Eco Sandals are actually made from old worn out tires!

Wow - I would much rather see a pair of jazzy sandals than a pile of dirty tires any day!

There is a whole new trend of eco friendly sandal makers now and they are keeping tires out of landfills, which is a fabulous result for our over-worked landfills!

I particularly like the story of EcoSandals.com. This company is a not for profit co-op that is helping poverty stricken individuals in a polluted city in Kenya.

The citizens are turning "trash into cash" something of value and helping themselves at the same time.

These sandals run from $34 - $44 and come in a range of colors and styles.

With tire soles, you can be sure these sandals are durable and will last you a long time.

In addition to tires, eco friendly sandals can also be made from recycled jeans, hemp, bamboo, paper pulp, natural latex and cork to name a few materials.

GreatGreenGoods.com has a wonderful run down of their top ten recycled sandals. Prices on their list range from $25 to $125.

If you are looking for a sexier sandal, try these sandals by Melissa. They are vegan and made from environmentally safe materials. They range from $59 to $119.
