About Foresake

The Forsake story begins in 2009 when two friends left the East coast for snowier pastures in Big Sky, MT and Alta, UT. Jobs were secured, apartments were rented, and skiing powder became a daily pursuit. But life in the Rockies puts a real strain on everyday footwear. Materials tear, feet slip, and water leaks everywhere. We needed a more rugged and reliable pair of sneakers. So, in 2012, we set about making them. We called it Forsake: for Sam and Jake.
