Welcome to 2012. Here, dead rappers come back as holograms, and now, our discarded beer bottles get turned into American-made jeans. You read that right, the innovative, beer-swilling minds at Bonobos have partnered with North Carolina denim makers Cone Mills to the bring an earth-friendly fabric into fruition.

The so-called "EarthSpun Yarn" consists of recycled cotton, polyester, and about three to five beer bottles per jean. They're available in two colors: natural canvas and a more traditional indigo rinse. So finish that sixer quickly. There are jeans to be made, after all. [Bonobos]
