Trash Talk

Greenbiz is reporting news from Beaverton, Ore., that Nike has teamed up with Phoenix Suns guard Steve Nash to produce a shoe that is mostly made from manufacturing waste and other materials that would normally be discarded.

The shoe is part of a bigger ‘green’ initiative that Nike is working towards that would allow their footwear to meet sustainability standards by 2011.

Nash was planning on wearing the show during the NBA All-Star game on Sunday.

“Any opportunity to promote the environment and preserve our planet is a step in the right direction”
—Steve Nash

    No, no! The best comment from last night from Nash was: Yeah, I’m not a trash talker… that’s the humor of it.”

    No? Ahhh, well. What are these trashy shoes going to cost us? $130?
