| Many styles Tzandals are available. Local artisans make them in classic styles or more over the top! |
Well here's something green and environmentally friendly. A group of Eco conscious folks decided to do something to save the world and help out communities in Tanzania in the process. They found a way to get artisans involved in using old tires to make sandals. "Tzandals - Tanzanian Tire Sandals" were born out of discarded tires. Otherwise, tires are burnt releasing harmful chemicals into the environment, or clogging up already overcrowded landfills. (Read about recycling tires on their About page)

These sandals, are called Tzandals, and have the appropriate slogan, "Tread a New Path." Their website indicates that their idea came from an idea to help the environment and help the people of the country at the same time. It's a way of connected local entrepreneurs (making the Tzandals) with the world market....
