I see a lot of reuse is good so it's all good. Do we know if the buyers of these reused shoes will recycle then when done or are these ending in a landfill? Because that's the ultimate issue here. Dow promised their end was not landfill.

Imagine that you collect soda bottles and promise you'll recycle them. When you get them, you turn them into sweaters that you sell. If someone who buys a sweater throws it in the landfill after it wears out, does that mean you broke your promise?
