Those interested in stylishly saving the world are going to want to peep the Puma InCycle collection. Puma's latest line of apparel is designed to be as Earth friendly as possible. The company's commitment to eco excellence comes in two forms. First is its biodegradable clothing, such as the pair of shoes seen here. The second part of the Puma InCycle collection involves the "Bring Me Back" program. The aptly named initiative asks users to bring in their old Puma gear (the brand will also accept clothing from other companies) so that it can be broken down and its materials reused.
The Puma InCycle collection shows the company's commitment to a greener planet and should prove to be a hit with eco-minded consumers. The program's biggest asset is its accessibility. All consumers need to do is throw their shoes in the trash or return their old clothing to a Puma store to help keep the Earth green.
