These two webposts are about the reusing of shoes. One focus' mainly on flip flops while the other features shoes in general. Flip flops are quite possibly the best shoe to wear in the summer but the worst quality. We all have them especially after visiting Old Navy for their crazy flip flop sale when everyone buys a pair in each color. Mentioned on the one site are many ideas on how to reuse these flimsy shoes. The other site doesn't recomend ideas on how to reuse the shoes, just mainly ways to prevent from wasting them. There is user generated content that poses possible ideas.

My favorite ways to reuse flip flops and shoes:

making a door mat out of cut up pieces of flip flops

nailing them to a tree for bird nests

making slippers with the flip flops as the soles

homemade stamps

These websites have the topic of some how recycling shoes but one puts much emphasis on the ecosystematic reprocusions involved with disposing of flip flops incorrectly. The other site generally wanted to know what to do with thier old shoes. I think everyone should make sure that they donate their shoes to the less fortunate and try to reuse them as much as possible.
