Miami Hurricane players to wear uniforms made from recycled materials

The University of Miami's football team will make history with their uniforms during the season opener against LSU on Sept. 2. The Hurricanes will become the first college team to don uniforms, cleats, and gloves made from repurposed ocean waste. Adidas worked with Parley for the Oceans, an organization that brings attention to the amount of plastic garbage in the world's oceans, to design the uniforms. Each uniform is made with ECONYL yarn, repurposed from fishing nets and other nylon waste, USA Today reports.
