Westin Gear-Lending Program Is Off And Running

Westin and New Balance partnered to donate more than 15,000 pairs of running shoes to Soles4Shoes, to benefit those impacted by Hurricane Sandy.

This coincided with the brand’s roll-out of its new running gear loan program at all 190 Westin properties around the world. A pilot program ran in 2010 at properties in 10 target markets and was overwhelmingly successful.

For $5, guests can borrow running shoes with disposable insoles and New Balance running apparel. Properties will also provide maps with local 5K running routes.
