Because some scammer in a third world country would snatch them all and resell them as authentic on the black market, that's why. Think Nigerian Scam.

Do they really have to SHRED them though? You'd figure they could deface them somehow and then donate to someone who needs shoes.

They might fall into the hands of terrorists allowing them to run away too fast.
