Do not throw it out, recycle it!
Recycle your worn out sneakers:
Nike has a program called Reuse-A-Shoe. They collect worn out athletic shoes, grind them up and ship them off to be used in surfacing athletic courts and playgrounds in under served communities. It takes about 2500 pairs of shoes to build a tennis court or basketball court. All brands are welcome.
