Could you turn your trash into streetstyle look? 
 
It’s the final episode of Green Flags and the competition stakes are higher than ever. Who will be crowned the ultimate Green Flag champion? 
 
But before we get to the awards, the hosts have one last challenge. Andrew Burgess, one of PUMA’s Voices of a RE:GENERATION, tasks Maya, Oli, and Mo with creating a killer outfit for the awards ceremony—using only materials that would otherwise go to waste. Who will rise to the occasion with a fit that’s fit for a champion? 
 
While stitching their masterpieces, the hosts learn about PUMA’s RE:FIBRE initiative, which turns polyester textile waste into fresh new threads. It’s a game-changer for reducing waste and taking steps toward a circular future. 
 
Ever wondered how much polyester is in your wardrobe—or what happens to it once you’re done wearing it? 
 
This episode dives into those questions and more, offering inspiration and practical tips to make sure you’re waving your own climate Green Flag. 
 
Have you created an outfit from waste materials? We want to see it! Share your creations on social media using the hashtag #PUMAGREENFLAGS.
