Congressional Sneaker Caucus

A bipartisan movement bringing Members of Congress from both parties together… over a love of shoes!

The Congressional Sneaker Caucus hosts Sneaker Day each year on Capitol Hill with special guests for Roundtable Discussions on Innovation, Footwear Design, Education, Footwear Jobs, Expanding Opportunities, and more. Sneaker Day kicked off in 2023 as a refreshing moment of fun amidst an era of political movement, where over 75 House and Senate members and congressional staff gathered on Capitol Hill to show off their shoes, have conversations, and celebrate the impact of sneakers on culture. Co-chaired by Representatives Jared Moskowitz (FL-23) and Wesley Hunt (TX-38), the Caucus is excited to host Sneaker Day 2025 on July 23, featuring Wilson Smith, former Nike Design Director.

The Sneaker Caucus:

• Is not focused on legislative issues, but serves as a tool to strengthen ties in a fun way with Members of Congress and policymakers across the political spectrum.
• Provides a key opportunity for FDRA to talk to Members of Congress about our industry and its contribution to health, fitness, art, entertainment, and culture.
• Wants to help provide sneakers to children in need. FDRA and Soles4Souls has partnered on an exciting new initiative called Soles4theDistrict supporting students experiencing homelessness in DC.

Don’t miss out on this amazing footwear movement!
