Gary Allan Partners With The Boot Campaign To ‘Take A Walk In A Soldier’s Shoes’

Military non-profit The Boot Campaign has a new supporter on board! Country superstar Gary Allan has pledged his commitment to the troops by putting on his own pair of Boot Campaign military issue combat boots and “taking a walk in a soldier’s shoes.”

Supporters of the Boot Campaign purchase boots with all proceeds going to partner military charities that help with a variety of both physical and emotional issues that returning soldiers face today. The Boot Campaign wants Americans to put the boots on to “symbolically walk in the shoes of our military men and women to remember their service and sacrifice.”

“As a former member of the Army, this holds a special place in my heart. I’m proud to work with such a fine organization. I’m headlining the Throwdown Tour this year and was glad to see that the Boot Campaign was going to be on the road with us. I think it’s great that a tour of this size is working hand in hand with the Boot Campaign, supporting veterans as they come home from combat…it just feels right,” Allan said.

Allan joins the ranks of current Boot Campaign celebrity ambassadors Dolly Parton, The Rock, Texas Governor Ricky Perry, Troy Aikman, Nolan Ryan, Charlie Daniels, George Jones and Gretchen Wilson.
