I'm impressed not about the glasses. But, look at all the wood tools he created to produce this. You are amazing

I mean if you can do this with denim - you can do this with any fabric scraps (perhaps if the fabric is thin you'll require more layers but still will absolutely work!) it's a new way of recycling, I also think you may recycle not just glasses this way but other accessories too! This is cool!🔥

This is clearly a man who has found his craft. Such dedication is great to see.
Such an intricate and long process I'm sure ...very unique.❤️Can't imagine the cost of one pair.💰💰

Love the dedication in this process.
The glasses are awesome! What an artist 💜 We should be doing more upcycling as a society. Yes, I do it everywhere I can. In my art and in my everyday life! It makes life much much more interesting and beautiful. Much better for out environment. No more fast fashion! 💜✌

I'm not an expert...but it seems to me like this process generates substantially more waste that CANNOT be recycled and also will not biogedrade like simple denim scraps would...it seems like a neat idea but net negative impact as far as environmental waste is concerned. I would love to be proven wrong by someone who knows more than I.

Fast fashion exists for a reason. Affordability and much wider range of sizes. Something will need to replace that for it to end.

@@whatever3145 Try thrifting or using what you already have. There is no reason to keep up with every single stupid trend that exists on this planet. Try wearing and reimagining what you own! I don't understand how people need quantity or quality that lasts weeks over years. I get it when it comes to children but even then people go overboard too! Other countries and your own for that matter may be swimming in wasted cloth from used clothes. Look into it. You may be surprised. If not it's to bad to close your eyes to be a part of the problem.

@@ZacharySkaggs You're 100% correct. Don't get me wrong I think this is an awesome idea, but it certainly won't have a positive environmental effect. They are recycling something that is biodegradable, adding a lot of plastic, and creating something non biodegradable. Again I'm not slamming the creator, it's an awesome idea, I love it.
I love this process true craftsmanship
He recycled biodegradable denim using lots of synthetic resin. Hurray!

The only sad part is in spite of the low cost of production most of these recycled products are so expensive that they never reach the masses, which beats the whole purpose.

@@XsmaelTheBest7 I completely understand your point. And I'm not at all against the profits he's making. My only concern is the environmental factor. There's a thing about such products, these are mostly manufactured for the premium segment of users and hence, the quantity sold is less. Or you may say, they're priced so high that it becomes unaffordable for the most users. But if it's made for a larger base of consumers by reducing the profit margin, the profit will definitely surpass the previous profit margins with the help of economy of scales. Also, if these products have been truly designed keeping in mind the eco friendly feature, then I think the manufacturer won't be going after huge profit margins, but with lesser profits and huge environmental impact. In the end, it majorly depends on the ulterior motive the manufacturer has behind his/her brilliant innovation.
Да. Вот это вещь. 👍
If you impregnate ANYTHING with resin it can be sunglass frames. We don’t have an issue with world wide denim contaminants. We have a problem with plastic. But thanks again for solving an issue that wasn’t there.
ill buy this
I want a pair.
Most amazing inventions of human kind in production process: 1. Economy of scale 2. Devision of labour 3. Assembly line 4. Automation This guy: Imma pretend that never happened. Also, one frame will cost you 200 dollars, sir because remember? We're saving the planet!

Why? Cotton is biodegradable and there's so much you can make with recycled fabric without covering it in resin and creating more plastic waste.
hm?
