Methods Sneakers: Breaking the mold

The footwear industry is evolving, and at the forefront of this change is Methods, a company dedicated to sustainability and innovation. With their recent Kickstarter launch, Methods Sneakers are redefining what it means to own and wear shoes. These sneakers are not just another pair of kicks—they’re part of a movement to reduce waste, promote customization, and extend the life of your favorite footwear.

Sneakers that last longer and waste Less

How often have you been forced to part with a beloved pair of sneakers because of a tiny flaw? Maybe it was just a worn-out sole or a damaged insole, but saying goodbye still hurt. Methods understands that emotional attachment and is here to provide a solution. Their sneakers are designed to be easily taken apart, repaired, and even fully recycled, allowing you to keep the same pair longer without sacrificing comfort or style.

Each part of the sneaker—laces, wrap, upper, insole, and sole—can be replaced individually. Worn-out components? No problem. Just replace the specific part instead of throwing away the whole shoe. This means you can hang onto your sneakers longer, reduce waste, and stay environmentally conscious, all without losing that sentimental connection to your footwear.

The power of simplicity: just 5 recyclable materials

Most sneakers on the market today are made from a complex mix of materials—up to 40 different ones, in some cases. This makes recycling a nearly impossible task. Methods breaks the mold by keeping things simple. They use only five materials in the construction of their sneakers:

• One material for the laces
• One for the wrap
• One for the upper
• One for the insole
• One for the TPU sole

Each of these materials is fully recyclable. When it's time for a refresh, you don’t need to toss your sneakers into the trash. Simply pack up the used parts in the same packaging your sneakers arrived in, send them back to Methods, and they will handle the recycling process for you.

A closed-loop system for a greener future

Methods isn’t just about making a cool, customizable sneaker. It’s about changing how we think about footwear consumption. Their closed-loop system ensures that every part of the sneaker can be reused or recycled, significantly reducing the environmental impact associated with traditional sneaker production and disposal.

With Methods Sneakers, you can have the best of both worlds: high-quality, stylish sneakers that last longer and leave a smaller carbon footprint.
