This week’s Video of the Week is Thierry Daher’s Fashion Forward Marketing. 

Inspired to act? Here are five ways to stomp out of your Air Force Ones and into some new soles:
  1. Many people don’t have the means to put shoes on their feet. Help put a pair of new shoes on the feet of those in need through organizations like Soles4Souls and ShoeHeals.
  2. High heeled shoes not only make you look better but feel better, too! Get your shoe therapy on at the Chicago Gilt City Warehouse Sale at the Museum of Contemporary Art!
  3. Too many pairs of old Air Force Ones and Air Jordan’s laying around? Recycle those old sneakers through Nike’s Reuse-A-Shoe Shoe Recycling Program and see your kicks make a comeback!
  4. Want to see your man try walking in a pair of high heels? Participate in “Walk a Mile in Her Shoes“, an opportunity for men to raise awareness in their community about serious causes and effects of sexualized violence. 
  5. Support independent artists while still sporting hip new shoe styles… Check out the shoe designs at BucketFeet! Every artist has a story and so does every shoe. 
If you take action on any of our suggestions above, share your story with us! You and your story could be featured right here on our blog! Send your action stories to corey@chicagoideas.com
