Today we released our latest Environmental, Social, Governance (ESG) Report to share activities from 2023 and report progress against our 2025 ESG commitments. "At Caleres we have a commitment to drive a sustainable business and generate value for all our stakeholders beginning with our caring and inclusive culture,” said Jay Schmidt. “We are actively working to reduce our own environmental footprint while at the same time promoting best practices and responsibility across our supply chain and the broader footwear industry. Caleres made significant progress in 2023 on our 2025 ESG goals, which serve as a compass for our strategic choices and day-to-day decision-making. These achievements would not be possible without the efforts of our global team of Associates.” Notable achievements shared in the 2023 ESG Report include: 🚀 Launching the One Planet Standard, an earned designation for its products that meet the company’s highest level of sustainability criteria measured across six lifecycle stages. 📊 Reporting its inaugural Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions data and helping suppliers reduce their environmental footprints. 🎯 Closing in on 2025 ESG targets, including 93% of Caleres-owned products containing at least one environmentally preferred material and 86% of strategic factories complying with heightened labor standards. 👥 Tailoring its people management efforts to align with company values by bringing DE&I and Talent Acquisition operations under one leader. 📚 Introducing a new learning platform, resulting in a 245% increase in training hours. 💰 Contributing a combined $800,000 from Associates and the Caleres Cares Charitable Trust to United Way through its annual campaign. 👟 Partnering with the Soles4Souls 4EveryKid program, with combined customer and Caleres Cares Charitable Trust donations providing 30,679 children experiencing homelessness with brand new athletic shoes.

We are kicking off our 20th anniversary celebrations by unveiling our groundbreaking Spring/Summer 2024 campaign featuring Kylie Jenner. “Twenty years is a huge milestone for our brand,” says Co-Founder and Creative Director Sam Edelman, “I feel so fortunate to have the support of Caleres, Inc., our parent company, to help bring Sam Edelman to its next chapter. Kylie Jenner is the complete embodiment of the modern woman—an incredible mother, daughter, sister, friend, and entrepreneur. Having her as our brand’s face for this milestone year is a true testament to the incredible fashion and momentum we plan to bring to our customers, not just this year but for many more to come.” https://lnkd.in/geuKg97g

Introducing our latest capsule collaboration. We applaud the talented students at Savannah College of Art and Design who collaborated alongside our visionary designer, Sam Edelman, to bring a fresh perspective to footwear. The result of their work is an innovative and exclusive collection of five sneakers created for Nordstrom’s “Make Room for Shoes” campaign aimed at showcasing emerging seasonal trends. “Mentoring the next generation of talent is a cornerstone of Sam Edelman's commitment to the future of design,” shared Jesse Edelman, general manager and senior vice president of the Sam Edelman division. “Our collaboration with the SCAD students is a testament to our belief in supporting the rising generation of professionals, providing them with a platform to express their visions under the guidance of an established brand.” Want to check out these designs in person? The Sam Edelman x SCAD collection is now available exclusively at Nordstrom.com, and at select Nordstrom stores across the US.
