Portland, where many Shoes.com brands and customers are from, is a city that is quirky, individualistic, and all about community. The birthplace of many artists, entrepreneurs, and makers, Portland understands the importance and the power of community; the people of Portland, no matter how successful and famous they get, never forget their roots and how it contributed to their craft.
Our Portland Made project aimed to celebrate the passionate community that makes Portland so distinct from other places. We showcased individuals from all walks of life, asking them hard questions and photographing them in their environment, so that we can help show off just how awesome Portland is.
