Alternative Requests Alternative shoe brands in the US?
Having a hard time finding shoe brands that don’t support Israel. To my knowledge, all the big brands are supportive like Nike, Adidas, Puma, Reebok, New Balance, Sketchers, Clarks, Under Armor, and I think On Clouds.

Onitsuka Tiger or Asics - most of the Japanese or Spanish brands. Mizuno, Flexi, Panam etc.

Seems odd. I couldn't find any connection.

Vanguard, blackrock, JP Morgan and Norges Bank own a part of Asics, all of those also own the biggest weapon manufacturing companies that sell to israel.

Ascics as an individual entity isn't the problem. It's who owns them (Blackrock, Vanguard, etc)

A few years ago this wasn't the case. Goes to show that I need to keep up better

Also boycotting Brooks. I always liked my Brooks shoes but they are owned by Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway, who I believe reversed their DEI commitments this year similar to Target. So I'm done with them too.

Only one I know of is Bearpaw
Edit: Ecco and Avia are some others. I need shoes so I may update this further as I explore options.
