Step 3: Your brand goes from concept to reality!

How does it work?

We make it easy...

Use your membership as little or as often as you want!

We recognize that 16 weeks can seem lengthy, but our goal is to offer access, not restrict our members schedules. We understand that our members are students and adults with various commitments.

​

The Footwear Founders curriculum has been thoughtfully designed with this in mind:

 

  • Courses can be accessed on the platform at any time; you can watch them all in one day or spread them out as you prefer.

  • Weekly "Office Hours" are optional, aimed at providing additional insights and answering questions. If you can't attend a Zoom session, no worries! We provide an optional recording for those who want to catch up at their convenience.

  • Participation in our contests, events, and Gala is completely optional.

  • Kits are included for educational purposes and play a significant role in the design process; however, they are not essential for gaining value from Footwear Founders and serve as an extra benefit on your footwear design journey.

  • Consultations are offered as an additional service through Footwear Founders, providing an option for those who prefer a different approach.

 

This structure allows our members to fully engage with the network without the need to be present at a specific time and place each week.

"It isn't more of what you have already tried!

​

We speak with dozens of people interested in getting into shoes every week, some have past experience, some are new to the industry. They all have one thing in common, they have an idea, and they need a little guidance in one area or another to make it reality. 

​

As a person that has started many brands including a couple multi-million-dollar brands, I have a wealth of real-life experience in starting and building brands as well as designing and marketing shoes. 

​

I have cultivated incredible relationships with factories and suppliers worldwide which I am harnessing into this community.​

​

Footwear Founders is a network of future forward entrepreneurs, designers, suppliers and more all with an interest in building something impactful in shoes." - Jordan Adoni, Footwear Founder
