Here’s a silly little idea:
When the wearer of this shoe walks on soft ground or through a puddle and then looks back at their footprints, they will see the word “CARBON” printed onto the ground behnd them — a literal rendering of their environmental impact.
I couldn’t find anything already like this out there — at least not easily searchable on Google (might as well not exist then, right?) — but I did find these other groovy sneaker sole designs:
Anyway, if anyone out wants to produce this shoe (or better yet, a shoe sole with the word CARBON crossed out) just remember to actually use sustainable production methods… and of course, send me a design royalty check…
