Tread Lightly

Tread Lightly is a nationwide recycling initiative turning unwanted sports and active lifestyle footwear into new opportunities—all right here in Australia.
Bringing together brands, retailers, suppliers, athletes, and customers, Tread Lightly empowers the Australian sporting community to shrink its environmental footprint. It’s never been easier to take meaningful action and tread lighter on the planet

 

 

JD Sports

JD Sports is dedicated to operating as sustainably as possible, with a strong focus on waste reduction and recycling. As part of this commitment, the brand has partnered with ASGA on a world-first, industry-wide Footwear Recycling Program, designed to help reduce the significant number of shoes that end up in landfill each year.

Customers can participate by visiting any Victorian JD Sports store to donate unwanted footwear. Through collaboration with recycling partners, the reusable byproducts from these shoes will be repurposed into gym mats, flooring, sporting surfaces, and retail flooring—giving discarded footwear a new life.

 

 

Platypus Shoes

Platypus Shoes is committed to reducing environmental impact by giving old footwear a second life. Through its Recycling Program, customers can drop off worn-out sneakers and sports shoes at designated in-store recycling bins. These shoes are then repurposed into new materials, helping to reduce landfill waste and support a more sustainable future.

 

 

The Athlete’s Foot

Turn your pre-loved sports shoes into something amazing! Drop them off at designated The Athlete’s Foot stores, where they’ll be collected and recycled into materials for new products like gym mats, flooring, and playgrounds.
Step up and join the movement to create a sustainable future—one pair of shoes at a time!
