If the shoes are in good condition, give them away, sell them or donate them to Arc’s Value Village, Goodwill, North Face, or Salvation Army.
See more shoes & leather donation opportunities on the Choose to Reuse website.
Athletic shoes that are no longer usable can be recycled at Nike Reuse-a-Shoe drop-offs at Nike and Converse stores.
Prolong the life of your favorite shoes by following proper care and cleaning instructions and by getting parts that commonly wear out replaced or repaired. Common shoe repairs include heel replacement, sole replacement and repairing or replacing the straps.
Consider shopping for shoes at reuse retailers.
