Abstract

In example aspects, materials are repurposed for article manufacturing. That is, in some instances, materials in the manufacturing supply chain are potentially subject to disposal. However, aspects of this disclosure sustainably repurpose those materials (that might otherwise be disposed of) to be used in articles. In some aspects, the repurposed materials may be obscured with a concealing layer.

the first concealed portion comprising a first repurposed material and a first concealing layer, the first repurposed material having a first color obscured from view by the first concealing layer; and

the second concealed portion comprising a second repurposed material and a second concealing layer, the second repurposed material having a second color obscured from view by the second concealing layer;

wherein the first concealing layer is configured to at least partially abrade after less than 400 crock meter cycles, after which the first color of the first repurposed material is presented; and

wherein the second concealing layer is configured to at least partially abrade after less than 400 crock meter cycles, after which the second color of the second repurposed material is presented.
