adidas’ new concept shoe is made from ocean trash

Now here’s a running shoe that’s hoping to make a difference. adidas, together with Parley for the Oceans, hopes to raise awareness and put a stop to plastics pollution of our water sources. And the shoe manufacturer created a new concept shoe built mostly out of plastics and deep-sea gill fishing nets from illegal fishing operations. It shows a nice nautical color to match the cause it champions. It’s still a concept at the moment but adidas plans to have some options later this year. Yes, you can own one of these environmentally-conscious running shoes pretty soon.

Here’s a glimpse of the ‘Batman v. Superman’ flick

Finally, we’re able to see what’s in store for us in the DC Universe with the first trailer of Batman v. Superman film. Of course, it looks epic from the get-go. The Zack Snyder-led film shows us what happened after Superman took on General Zod and its effect on Metropolis and Gotham City. We see that Bruce Wayne was in Metropolis when the big battle happened. And that seemed to serve as a catalyst for him to become Batman and put a stop to Superman. Also, we see Jesse Eisenberg as Lex Luthor and Gal Gadot getting to don the Wonder Woman suit.
