Caleres

The name Caleres comes from the Latin word calēre- means to glow with passion or intensity. The *5* is part of a logo taken from a stamp on the bottom of all shoes in the late 1800s that represents the company's promise of comfort and fit. The company paid $5 to the wearer if the stamp ran out. With unyielding determination, we have held to the spirit of the founding of the company in 1878: a determination to create the perfect fit.

Caleres is home to today's most coveted footwear brands around the world and represents a diverse portfolio spanning every lifestyle and experience. Every shoe tells a story and Caleres has the perfect fit for each shoe. Caleres brands are present in all channels of today's global marketplace, including more than 1,200 branded retail locations as well as department and specialty stores, and e-commerce websites and many third-party retail sites. Their brand collections have been developed and acquired to meet the growing needs of today's audience types.
