Planting Trees, Growing Change
We care deeply about the planet and creating a business that gives back to nature. That’s why we are thrilled to share that we are partnering with One Tree Planted to plant a tree for every pair of Goodsole sneakers sold.
Trees clean our air and water, create habitat for biodiversity, contribute to our health and wellbeing, and create jobs for social impact. We are honored to include supporting reforestation
through One Tree Planted as an integral part of our business model.
Beyond Trees…
But our commitment doesn't stop there. We've selected three charities that align with our values and are making a positive impact on the world. When you buy Goodsole sneakers, you have the opportunity to support these charities with a simple click.
How it Works
With our Treadlightlightly programme, we're committed to restoring the balance between people and the planet.
Here's how it works:
1. Give one: For every sneaker purchase, we plant a tree contributing to restoration efforts.
2. Give two: after purchase, you choose a charity that's making the world a better place, and we donate to it on your behalf.
Together, we support charities like One Tree Planted, Sustainable Coastlines, charity: water, and Youthline, just to name a few.
Each product includes a QR code inside the box. Simply scan it with your phone to choose which charity to support with a click.
Each pair is tracked and attributed correctly, so rest assured that your contribution goes directly to the cause you care about.
