THIS SIDE UP offers an environmentally friendly alternative to the current disposable footwear on the market. Usually found in hotels, airports, hospitals and even spray tanning booths, these shoes are usually made from un-biodegradable materials such as EVA and polypropylene. Instead, THIS SIDE UP was constructed with waste cardboard, found on my commutes to and from university. It’s flat-pack, making it easy to transport and store in bulk, and also tackles the overlooked issue of cardboard pollution, which is a significant source of methane emission in landfills.
