In its bid to create solutions to help protect the future of sports as climate change threatens our planet, Nike transformed and opened a sustainable and artistic basketball court made entirely from Nike Grind materials 20,000 pairs of used sneakers.

The sustainable art project for Shek Lei Grind Court in Kwai Chung marks a new exploration for Nike Grind, a grassroots initiative the came to life in 1992 to repurpose old shoes. Over the years, it has developed into a global sustainability program that continues to positively change the landfill landscape.

To do that, we’re harnessing Nike’s innovative spirit and scaling sustainable solutions to reduce waste and combat climate change. Shek Lei Grind Court highlights how we can leverage Nike Grind to turn waste into new opportunities for athletes to make sport a daily habit".
