Made for walking
Tread started as one wall of sneakers and a try-on bench on Milwaukee Avenue. Today it is forty-odd labels, a launch calendar and a team that still wears every pair before it goes on the wall.
The bench where every pair gets tried on.
Why we do it
Straight from the label, never resale
Every pair we sell comes from the brand or its distributor. We do not buy from resellers and we do not mark up launches.
Raffles are one entry per person, checked by hand, so the pairs go to people who will wear them.
Authenticity guaranteed
Every pair comes straight from the label or its distributor. No resale stock, ever.

Worn indoors and still not right? Send them back, or swap the size in store.
