Newton is honored to have been the first athletic footwear company to be B-Corp certified, but for 2019, we have elected to allow our certification to expire to take another path towards philanthropic projects that deliver a more tangible and direct benefit to the people and causes that are close to our Company’s heart. Our values haven’t changed, if anything, we are growing stronger in our mission to make the world’s best footwear in the most ethical and transparent manner and will still be adhering to all the social, environmental and ethical standards we are known for, this is simply a change to try to service the people, communities, and causes we care about in a more direct and impactful manner.
