초록

In terms of corporate sustainability management, the footwear industry is still at a very early stage compared to other sectors, and footwear, especially sneakers, is not as far along as apparel due to the nature of the product. As a result, there is a lack of research on sustainability in the sneaker industry in the academic community. Thus, this study analyzed the sustainability practices of three leading brands in the sneaker market, adidas, allbirds, and NIKE, in order to provide basic data for expanding sustainability in the sneaker industry. The study found that the characteristics of sustainable management in sneaker brands are economic efficiency, environmental circularity, social integration, and governance soundness. Sustainable management is increasingly recognized as an essential task in modern society, and as the sneaker market expands, the demand for CSM from relevant brands will grow accordingly. Therefore, the results of this study will help to set policy directions for sneaker brands pursuing sustainable management.
