Starch Slides

the average american throws out 65 pounds of textiles per year. that's about 11 million tons of waste in our landfills today. with starch slides we are trying to help solve this issue by making sustainable, fashionable, comfortable slides. the slides are made by taking used, unwanted button up shirts, eliminating textile waste in a fashionable way. for every used shirt, we make 1 small, 2 mediums, and 1 large. when you find the pair that you love, think fast because once they are gone, they are gone for good. you can rest assured that your slides will be uniquely yours, no one will have the same. we have been working closely with a manufacturer and together we created a shoe that we are very proud of. the shirt is taken and lined with vegan leather to protect the fabric and keep your foot secure and supported. the sole is made out of eco-friendly materials that make the slide comfortable as well as durable. the shoes come in a raw, jute backpack, eliminating the waste of a shoebox. the
