Watch it to learn more about this process, check out the end product, and see how clever our Spencer is. Reprocess: Salvaged Shelving from IndoSole on Vimeo. Ps. Are we friends on facebook yet?

This video is super rad! Shwood uses old skate decks to create sunglasses. This is a great example of how we can take old materials and make new things that are just as interesting, unique, and nice looking. We like the idea of re-purposing used materials to create a totally new design. Sweet! Experiment No. 1 - Skateboard Shades from Shwood Eyewear on Vimeo.

We at IndoSole believe in giving old things a new utility...a new life. Our passion is to scavenge and source stuff that had a previous use. Then, re-create and re-purpose that material into something else. This time we sourced and re-purposed masonite from an old skate ramp. Now, its a sign at IndoSole's office in San Clemente, CA. Check out the video! Reprocessed: Indo Sign from IndoSole on Vimeo. Acted, produced, and edited by: IndoSole boy wonder - Spencer Sheehan
