Bethesda, MD — There is a particular kind of confidence that arrives when you put on the right pair of shoes. You stand differently. You walk into a room differently. You feel — before a single word is spoken — like the best version of yourself.
That moment shouldn't be a privilege. It should be a right.
Today, SimplySoles is proud to announce our partnership with Dress for Success, the global nonprofit empowering women to achieve economic independence through career development resources, professional attire, and a supportive community of women helping women.
Why This Partnership, Why Now
SimplySoles has spent over two decades helping women find shoes that feel as good as they look. But our belief has always been that the right shoe is more than an accessory — it is a tool. A signal. A small, powerful act of self-possession.
Dress for Success understands this better than anyone. Since 1997, they have helped more than 1.3 million women across 150 cities in 30 countries step into interviews, into new careers, and into futures they had every right to claim. They know that when a woman feels prepared — truly, completely prepared, from the ground up — the outcome changes.
We wanted to be part of that.
What We're Doing Together
Beginning this summer, SimplySoles will contribute in the following ways:
-
Donate over 2,000 pairs of curated shoes to Dress for Success this year, providing professional footwear to women entering and reentering the workforce.
-
Make direct cash contributions to support Dress for Success workforce development programming and global mission.
-
Donate a percentage of every sale this holiday season to further the organization's mission.

About Simply Soles
Simply Soles is an American luxury fashion house with roots in the world's most storied shoemaking traditions. For over two decades, the brand has designed and produced luxury sourced fashion from master artisans in Spain and Brazil — regions where footwear is not manufactured, but crafted: shaped by hand, finished with intention, and built to be worn for a lifetime. Each style is a collaboration between old-world technique and a distinctly modern sensibility — one that understands the human who dresses with purpose and lives without compromise. Since its founding, SimplySoles has occupied a singular position in fashion: a curator of exceptional footwear and accessories that is at once elevated and wearable, artisanal and alive. It is not a brand that follows the season. It is a brand that defines it.
