Buy Some Pink Kicks from Chrome and Fight Breast Cancer!

Take a step in the fight against breast cancer by buying a pair of pink Kursk sneakers from Chrome. You’ll be guaranteed that $20 (or 50 percent from each sale) will go to the Keep A Breast Foundation.

Chrome is a leading manufacturer of bike messenger bags, footwear and urban cycling apparel
for both men and women.

And like so many other retailers this month, Chrome announced their “pink promotion” in recognition of Breast Cancer Awareness month!

For the rest of this month, Chrome is pledging to donate 50 percent of all Pink Kursk shoe sales to the Keep A Breast Foundation, a leading non-profit organization in breast cancer awareness and prevention.

“We are truly honored to be able to contribute to the mission of the Keep A Breast organization,”
says Chrome Marketing Director, Matt Sharkey in a press release. “Their organization has absolutely lead the way in terms of affectively communicating prevention and awareness in relevant and creative ways. We’re thrilled to support their efforts in any way we can.”

At $40 each, you can buy your own pair of pink kicks here. Oh, and did I mention free shipping?
