This includes the Air Force 1 '07, the [Air Max 90s](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mad-pack), the Air Mx 95s, the Daybreak-Type, and the [Cortez](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cortez-sneaker-model). All of the sneakers are constructed from recycled materials -- at least a make up of 20%. The entire pack of footwear designs are all made from a [recycled canvas material](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/allbirds-remix) throughout the upper, as suggested by the namesake of the collection. This material is used with yarn in order to make use of the brand's post-industrial textile waste. Additional sustainable accents include the backtabs and Flyleather Swoosh branding details, which are made from 80% leather fibers. The shoes also have recycled foam at the laces and the tongue.
