Notre Teams Up With Chicago Food Bank for sacai x Nike Raffle

By leveraging the popularity of the upcoming sacai x Nike Waffle LDV Nylon Chicago fashion retailer Notre has teamed up with two local charities – the Greater Chicago Food Depository and Gotham Greens –  in order to combat its city’s hunger problem in a wholly unique way.

In order to gain a raffle ticket to purchase the highly anticipated sneakers, Notre asks that participants donate two pieces of shelf-stable food over the next three days which will go to the GCFD, a prominent food bank. Larger donations are welcome but will not result in extra raffle entries.

Furthermore, Gotham Greens, a company that specializes in locally-grown, indoor agriculture, has also committed to matching each donation (up to 2,400 raffles) with a head of fresh lettuce for the GCFD. This is a beautiful way of using the hype around sneaker culture for positive, communal change who’s influence is hopefully felt across other retailers as well.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
