Since 2011 when etnies decided to plant a tree for every pair of Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree shoes they sold more than 200,000 trees have been planted in Costa Rica and Brazil. And now, they have a website that explains it all at http://etnies.com/buyashoeplantatree.
By visiting the new Buy a Shoe, Plant a Tree microsite on etnies.com, customers can learn how the program works and see how many trees have been planted so far, including their own tree contribution, through the live tree-planting counter. Also, the site’s timeline breaks down the program year-by-year showing, through videos, photography and descriptive text, how this initiative has helped replenish devastated forest communities.

Tony Hawk discusses how he got started, his break with Per Wilander and how he learned to say, “No.” In a Inc. magazine How I Got Started feature.
When we first started, I was doing all the marketing and all the promotional materials myself. I was OK at it, but I wasn’t the most qualified person. Finally, one of our team members said, “Your ads aren’t very good. You’re better at skating. Why don’t you let me take this over?” . . . So I took a step back from the business and focused on skating. I stopped being so involved in the day-to-day operations and became more of an adviser. The company was growing, and everything was working out pretty well. But all that changed when we started to move outside of the skate world.
