SOM Footwear Celebrates 1st Birthday

Happy Birthday to SOM!
Olie Marchal and Nathalie Bouchard, founders of SOM Footwear

SOM Footwear celebrates our first full year of being in production this month! We want to take the time to sincerely thank each and every one of you for supporting SOM Footwear. Whether you've purchased a pair of shoes or simply show your support by helping us spread the word about SOM, we would not be where we are today without all of you!

To celebrate this milestone, we will be hosting a special Happy Hour at the factory on July 31st from 4pm-7pm. If you're in the Montrose area, stop by and meet the creators of SOM! We will also be giving factory tours. Please RSVP on our Facebook page if you plan on attending.

Improved Design

Olie and our research and development team are always looking for ways to be innovative in our design.

In our new soling process, we've found a more environmentally friendly way to make our sole. We use the same Vibram soft sole that you love, but we've attached a Vibram reinforced rubber band to the bottom edge of the shoe (see photo below). This band provides even better abrasion resistance and makes the final product .1oz lighter.

This process greatly reduces our amount of waste created per shoe and offers a cleaner finished product. It's a cleaner and more efficient production process for us and a better finished product for you- it's a win-win!
 

New Pattern Released

As we were getting ready to retire our now sold out Flower Power pattern, we asked our Facebook fans to choose our next pattern based on a few concept drawings. We had an excellent response and the results are in! Check out our latest pattern, Summer Floral-

Please be advised that any order placed between July 2nd and July 8th may not be ready for shipment until July 24th. Any orders placed between July 9th and July 19th may not be ready to ship before July 28th. Although we will be out of the office, we will be periodically checking our email.

We appreciate your patience and understanding.
 
No Outlet in July

Since our Outlet day in July falls during our factory maintenance week, there will not be an outlet day in July. Our next factory outlet day will be Thursday, August 13th from noon- 6pm. The outlet is located next to our factory at 1006 N. Cascade Ave in Montrose, Colorado. We look forward to seeing our locals and those traveling through Colorado on August 13th!
