Lisa Cronin, a Pollinator at the Eden Project, shows how to make sandals out of an old vehicle tyre. She shows how rubber is extracted from trees, and also explains that this type of sandal is popular in the Tropics as it outlasts shop-bought sandals many times over. For many people, the functional value of the footwear is much more important than the way it looks.
