Allen Edmonds to partner with Soles4Souls

An estimated one billion pairs of shoes lay idle in American closets, while millions of people in world and in the U.S. do not own even a single pair. That is why Allen Edmonds decided to team up with Soles4Souls and asking you to let someone walk a mile in your shoes, literally.

Simply bring in a new or gently used pair of shoes to Allen Edmonds stores and receive a generous $50 off a new pair of Allen Edmonds! The shoes you donate can be any size, style or gender, we just ask that they have some life left. The shoe drive begins March 7th and will last until the 23rd.

"We are honored to partner with Soles4Souls to support its mission to donate footwear to those in need," said Mark Birmingham, President and CEO of Allen Edmonds Shoe Corporation. "It is a simple way to make a difference in the lives of many."

Founded in 1922, Allen Edmonds manufactures premium men's footwear and accessories using the philosophy of quality, service and integrity. They view shoemaking as an art form and carefully craft each shoe by hand that includes 212 separate production steps. Allen Edmonds products are available at upscale stores worldwide and on the internet.
