Swedish denim label Nudie Jeans has come up with a clever and stylish way to reuse worn out and destroyed denim by way of their Post Recycled Denim Rugs. Part of the brand's Post Recycled Jeans initiative, these textured carpets are not only entirely eco-friendly, they will also make fashionable additions to people's homes. Who says jeans have to be worn?
The Scandinavian-style Post Recycled Denim Rugs are created out of donated pairs of jeans. To create one carpet, the jeans are turned "into serrated strips, sewn together, rolled onto spools and then hand-woven together in Turkey on a traditional manual shuttle loom," according to Uncrate.
Available exclusively at Nudie Jeans House in Los Angeles and Nudie Jeans Concept Stores globally, the Post Recycled Denim Rugs are perfect for entranceways and kitchens.
