Comapany Expands Footwear Line for Construction Workers, Contractors
NELSONVILLE, Ohio – Georgia Boot's exclusive SPR™ leather has become a trusted barrier for construction workers between their feet and industrial chemicals and acids. The specially-tanned leather is three times stronger and two-and-a-half times more abrasion-resistant than conventional leathers, making it resistant to many harmful materials commonly found in construction and industrial environments.
The company is now offering a new style featuring SPR leather in its 2005 line with the addition of a men's chukka (GB1222.)
"We've always had SPR boots in six and eight-inch models and Wellingtons," said Lee Lemon, vice president of sales. "The addition of the chukka was in response to what we were hearing from consumers. They want a more comfortable footwear option that is still sturdy and will protect their feet from chemicals. The chukka wears more like a shoe but it's still very tough."
Available in July, the GB1222 comes in medium and wide sizes 7-12 and 13. Suggested retail price is $75.
Georgia Boot manufactures and markets quality-crafted work, safety, Farm & Ranch® and outdoor footwear. Further information on the company and its products can be found at www.georgiaboot.com.
