Store closed Mon, Sept 28 & Tues, Sept 29...I'm going back to school





Many of you are familiar with Superfeet insoles. They are an over-the-counter insole that cups your heel and supports your arch keeping your feet, knees, hips and back in proper alignment. In short...they are a miracle for sore feet and backs.
Interestingly enough, there is actually so much information to learn about proper fitting and use of orthotic inserts that I am going to Superfeet University this week to learn more about how to properly assess my customers needs. We've already had two in-services in the store with the Superfeet Rep but the university is the all inclusive program. I even get to tour the facility where they make Superfeet and custom orthotics at the Northwest Podiatric Laboratory.

The downside?

Sole Obsession Footwear will be closed Monday, Sept 28th and Tuesday, Sept 29th.

But I will be back Wednesday with lots of new knowledge under my belt.

Looking forward to sharing it with you.

Oh yeah, and we have some new ultra-girlie Sofft boots in. Come see them on Wednesday.

Buy cute shoes ~ give a pair to New Way Ministries




During the month of September I have been running a special program through the children's shoe company Aldabella Scarpa: For every pair of shoes sold, a pair is given to New Way Ministries, here in Lynden, for a child who needs them.

It really is that simple.

Now my goal was to raise 50 pairs for New Way Ministries. So far this goal is a LONG way off. Would you join me in meeting the goal? Don't know a baby right now? No worries. These darling shoes are so cute and come in the cutest little box (picture above) that you can buy one or two now and save it for a baby gift down the road. Check the website or stop by the store for more info.
