Edelman Shoe, Inc.'s reported carbon emissions

Inherited from Caleres, Inc.

Edelman Shoe, Inc., headquartered in the US, currently does not have specific carbon emissions data available for recent years. The company is a current subsidiary of Caleres, Inc., which provides emissions data and climate commitments at a higher corporate level. As such, any climate-related initiatives or targets may be influenced by the broader strategies of Caleres, Inc. Edelman Shoe, Inc. has not publicly disclosed specific reduction targets or commitments under the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi) or other climate pledges. The absence of detailed emissions data and reduction initiatives suggests that the company may still be in the early stages of formalising its climate strategy. As part of the footwear industry, Edelman Shoe, Inc. is positioned within a sector increasingly focused on sustainability and carbon reduction. The company may benefit from the overarching climate strategies of its parent organisation, Caleres, Inc., which is actively working towards improving its environmental performance. However, without specific data or commitments from Edelman Shoe, Inc., a comprehensive assessment of its carbon emissions and climate commitments remains limited.
