“We are extremely proud that Adidas is joining us in this mission and is putting its creative force behind this partnership to show that it is possible to turn ocean plastic into something cool,” said Parley for the Oceans Founder Cyrill Gutsch.

Meanwhile, the athletic brand says this is just the beginning: on the heels of the concept shoe, Adidas says there will be more consumer-ready ocean plastic products coming later this year.
