Adidas is producing millions of its shoes using ocean plastic: https://mymodernmet.com/adidas-parley-sustainable-fashion (and these shoes can be then turned into jet fuel).

I think at this point they've moved to just "intercepting" plastic before it makes its way into the ocean. From the parley website:

"In remote areas, we establish systems to intercept plastic waste before it ends up in landfills, gets burned, buried or tossed into rivers or oceans."

So still might be more interesting than the recycled water bottles everyone else is sourcing but maybe disingenuous for them to be using the "ocean plastic" language still.
