New Balance has been associated with the Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure® series since 1989, and has been a National Series sponsor since 1991. As a National Series sponsor, New Balance partners with retailers and individual race organizations across the country to promote awareness at the local level. The Komen foundation was established in 1982 by Nancy Brinker to honor the memory of her sister, Susan G. Komen, who died from breast cancer at the age of 36.
Running Toward a Common Goal
In 1983, the first Komen Race for the Cure® was held in Dallas, Texas with 800 participants. Today, The Komen Race for the Cure is the largest series of 5K runs/fitness walks in the world with well over 1 million participants since 2005. New Balance has created a collection of high-quality performance footwear, apparel and accessories that all feature a pink ribbon, the universal symbol of breast cancer awarenes.

Komen Breast Cancer Foundation up to $50,000. The 2003 New Balance race up for the cure collection includes nine athletic shoes from the running , walking and cross-training categories. The collection is also distinguished by pink ribbon tissue paper in each shoebox and a hang-tag that explains the symbol′s significance and the compnay′s fourteen-year relationship wiht the Komen Foundation.

The first human being stood upright about 1 million years ago. Then when our feet took on a double load, they freed our hands for other things and civilization was born. With it came shoes - first, simple skin sandals that protected feet from cold and injury. But since those early times, shoes have more often been worn for status and style than comfort and function.
Pronation and Supination Early Greek and Oriental actors used platform shoes to make the main character on state stand above the supporting players. In sixteenth-century England, male dandies wore shoes with extremely pointed toes. And although it nearly crippled them, years ago upper-class Chinese women bound their feet so they could wear tiny shoes - a sign of being well bred!
Tailor's Bunion Today's high heels are almost as rough on modern women's feet, so it's no surprise that 80% of all foot problems occur in women.
Hammertoes But men's feet haven't fared too well either. The stresses and inactivity of contemporary life often lead to obesity. And if those extra pounds weren't enough to make a pair of feet ache, the out-of-shape, weekend athlete doesn't always wear the right shoes for the right activity. The result, often as not, is a foot problem or two. And wearing improper footwear on the job not only causes painful problems for the worker, but contributes to thousands of hours of downtime - which translates into the loss of millions of dollars - in industry each year.
Metatarsalgia
Fortunately, most foot problems can be prevented. Just follow the Golden Rule: Be good to your feet . . . and they'll be good to you.
