The company is partnered with the nonprofit Good360 organization to give staff at various hospitals around the U.S. and Europe a pair of comfortable shoes. Usually the shoes normally sell for $120.

About 30,000 pairs will go to healthcare workers in Chicago, Los Angeles, Memphis and New York City and also to the Veterans Health Administration. Another 2,500 will be donated to hospitals in Europe.

The Air Zoom Pulse have cushioning and traction systems that are designed to keep the foot secure in hospital settings.
