• Jungle Moc Scrap: Iconic, and stylish, this shoe is a jack-of-all-trails built for comfort, convenience, and durable traction. The upper is made from leftover scrap material, 100% recycled double stretch gore and breathable mesh lining, with 50% recycled removable EVA foam footbed.
• Moab 3 Scrap: Inspired by Merrell's bestselling hiking boot, this shoe is built with uppers made up of stitched-together scrap material, providing the ultimate all-purpose, all-terrain outdoor companion. Made with famous out-of-the-box comfort, 100% recycled laces, webbing, and mesh footbed cover, along with Vibram® Ecostep Recycle outsole designed with up to 30% recycled rubber.
• Moab Speed Scrap: Light on your feet and your conscience, this hiker is the ideal hybrid designed for speed and all-purpose versatility. Made with 100% recycled laces and webbing, 30% recycle EVA foam midsole, and Vibram® Ecostep Recycle outsole designed with up to 30% recycled rubber.

"The Scrap line's signature feature is the computerized grid stitch to trap all the normally unusable scrap pieces, leading to a unique aesthetic across the collection," said Ian Cobb, Senior Design Director at Merrell. "This was a passion project for our team as we look to merge style with eco-conscious decisions such as making footwear with excess materials from the production process."

As part of its many pledges to deepen its commitment to sustainability, Merrell is helping to minimize its impact on the outdoors by making footwear and apparel with recycled, renewable, or organic materials. The brand is also helping to protect what matters – in its backyard and beyond – by using what would have been considered pre-consumer waste in new, interesting ways. Scrap is part of the brand's This is Home multi-year sustainability initiative designed to inspire consumers to protect the nature that shapes their everyday lives.
