Every day, Omega Sports helps friends and neighbors lead active lives.

But growing a greater neighborship in our communities is at the heart of everything we do. We believe that staying active in your life requires certain essentials like reliable footwear.

Sadly, we understand many of our neighbors can’t keep up with their footwear needs.

That’s why 30 years ago, we decided to create Summer Sneaker Trade-In to help our customers help neighbors in need while enjoying savings on us to say thank you.

And even though we host this annual event, that doesn’t mean we haven’t seen thousands of customers happy to bring in their shoes every month for donation.

Each neighborhood store works with a charity or organization to provide donated footwear.
