Adidas is one of the most well-known and respected athletic wear brands in history. The glowing reputation came due to many, many years of giving back — both from the brand itself and its consumers.
The brand kicked off its Give Back campaign in January 2022, where you can "give your gear a future." This new initiative rewards you for giving out-of-use shoes and clothes from any brand — not just adidas — in any condition "the chance to be resold or reused."
As adidas perfectly puts it, “You might be done, but your gear’s not.”
This exciting new program that promotes sustainability and reduces waste is available exclusively on the adidas app. So, click here to download it on your Apple or Android device.
If you’re curious to know how the Give Back campaign works, here’s a quick five-part guide that takes you through the process:
Clean out your closet: Go to the adidas app account page and select the “Give Back” tab.
Pack your gear: Once you’ve chosen what you’d like to get rid of, put the items from any brand in any condition in any bag or box under 60 inches with a maximum weight of 30 pounds.
Ship it: Print and attach the prepaid shipping label and ship it via FedEx or USPS.
It’s sorted: Adidas goes through your shoes and clothes before reselling or reusing them.
You get rewarded: You’ll earn 200 Creators Club member points and up to $40 worth of adidas vouchers.
In the spirit of sustainability and giving back, check out five of the best eco-friendly and sustainably sourced adidas finds that are absolutely worth the investment below.
