Adidas allows people with amputations or different leg lengths to buy one pair of sneakers

Adidas has launched the Single Shoe initiative, which allows people with amputations or different leg lengths to buy one pair of sneakers at 50% off, the company said in a statement.

The initiative was developed in conjunction with the British Paralympic community and is available in 22 European countries, but not in Ukraine.

Nike has a somewhat similar program. One Shoe Bank operates in the US and allows amputees to make a free shoe request once a year.

You can specify the desired shoe style, color, and size. However, you cannot buy a single sneaker directly in Nike stores.
