Workboot Durability. Athletic Shoe Comfort.
Markham, Ontario, Canada, January 7th, 2007 - The Orthotic Group, a world leader in custom orthotics, orthotic footwear and innovative computerized gait analysis technology GaitScan™, today announces it's partnership with Cat Footwear.
"In keeping our commitment in providing and expanding our major brands for the Spring/Fall 2008 season and beyond, we are pleased to add the new Cat Footwear workboot styles to our footwear collection", said Justin Shulman, vice-president of TOG. "As a leading manufacturer and marketer of work footwear, our partnership with Cat Footwear provides healthcare practitioner's patients with the support and comfort required for maximum durability and comfort."
Features and benefits of Cat Footwear:
Patients want maximum durability. Patients want ultimate comfort. Give them iTechnology™.
iTechnology is the revolutionary integration of workboot durability and athletic shoe comfort. A Goodyear welted forepart provides optimum strength and durability while a molded EVA heel cradle provides the same comfort found in a sneaker.
Your patient's footwear will be comfortable right out of the box without the typical "break-in" period of traditional welted footwear.
Note: All available in half sizes and standard wide foot.
