Crocs and Levi's team up for a jean-ious way to recycle old denim plus...4 more cool circular economy campaigns.

PROT, the creative force behind the Japanese brand PROLETA RE ART, has a reputation for repurposing diverse leftover fabrics, incorporating unique tapestries and textures to bring new dimensions to conventional items. In the design label's latest endeavor, PROT has teamed up with Levi’s and Crocs to craft an exclusive seriously funky collection of shoes and shoe bags, making use of surplus denim materials accumulated at Levi's headquarters over time.

These creations not only recycle fabric they show that a brand's commitment to being part of the circular economy can be anything but boring.
