On April 8th Ida Red, in association with Toms shoes, hosted the local “One Day Without Shoes” event. The event, designed to raise awareness of the plight of children in the developing world who have shoes, was one of countless others like it across the country. Participants gathered in front of Ida Red and waited for the signal — delivered by Tulsa’s own Taylor Hanson — and commenced a roughly one-mile walk down Brookside and back again, complete with cheers, a good deal of skipping and honking cars.

Taylor Hanson thanks the crowd and starts the walk.
