Each event type produces a different shoe design — what goes on the shoe is determined by what the event means.

🏆 Chapter Anniversary
Founding year, current year, and years of existence for milestone anniversaries — 10th, 15th, 20th, 25th. The anniversary shoe is a permanent chapter artifact. Often given to founding members as a tribute.
