Welcome to our new "Companies Doing Good" page where we feature companies that are helping to make the world a better place.
Deckers Outdoor Corporation, whose corporate office is located in Goleta, remains close to its origin. It is there, as a UCSB student,
that Doug Otto, Founder and current Chairman, began producing sandals in 1973. Since then, Deckers has grown into an international company with three footwear brands - Teva, Simple and Ugg.
Since their start over 30 years ago, Deckers has strived to find balance in their environmental responsibilities and business practices. Started by avid outdoorsmen, Deckers roots run deep in the protection of our wild places; supporting organizations such as Waterkeeper Alliance, the
Teva brand is able to focus on the protections of waterways worldwide. Simple Shoes revolutionized the footwear industry through innovation with the Green Toe(r) collection of sustainable footwear which uses materials that are less harmful to the environment
Continuing their efforts of outreach, Deckers Outdoor Corporation is proud to support Soles4Souls Million Pair March campaign by mobilizing local communities in the collection of a quarter of a million pairs (250,000) of new and used footwear. Collected shoes from the Million Pair March will be distributed to individuals in disaster-driven areas like the Gulf Coast and the Third World like Africa and Honduras.
Soles4Souls, got its start following the Asian Tsunami in 2004, where the organization was able to donate approximately 300,000 shoes to those affected. Since then, Soles4Souls has provided more than two million pairs of shoes to people in need throughout the world. For more
information on Soles4Souls, or the Million Pair March, visit: www.soles4souls.org.
