Concerned about the environment and committed to making a difference? Talking trash just won’t cut it – you need to take action. Recycling your athletic shoes with Nike’s Reuse-A-Shoe is a simple way to start.
How should you get involved? Sometimes the most important changes are the small ones – like bringing your athletic shoes – no matter what brand – to your nearest drop-off location, looking for recycled and sustainable materials in the products you buy and helping us spread the word about shoe recycling.
Where can you recycle your shoes? Use the map on the right to find a drop-off location – including all Nike retail stores in the U.S., as well as National Recycling Coalition centers and other locations in the U.S., Europe and Australia.
Reuse-A-Shoe also supports a small number of group recycling drives each year with partners like colleges, schools and community groups. Find out more about holding an athletic shoe drive with your group.
No matter how you get involved, you’ll be helping the world reduce its footprint – one step at a time.
Help us keep our machines running smoothly. When recycling your shoes, please remember:
- We can only recycle athletic shoes (running shoes, sneakers, etc.)
- We accept all brands of shoes
- No shoes containing metal
- No cleats or dress shoes
- No wet or damp shoes
