Chicago, May 28, 2008

Lemaitre Securite, a professional safety footwear manufacturer and designer, is launching the CityZen range for Men, a new line of fashion-conscious shoes. Non-steel, lightweight, elegant and highly reliable, they will remove the barriers to wearing safety footwear in places where they are mandatory but where some elegance is expected.

This footwear will provide users with numerous advantages. The shoes are:

o Impervious to thermal variations and transfers.

The CityZen for Men line is aimed at plain-clothes and uniformed personnel, as well as engineering supervisors, who work in offices and workshops, controlled areas, airports, warehouses, etc. This is the ideal shoe to go from one place to another without having to change footwear, be it indoors or outdoors.

Made of superb full-grain, water-repellent black leather, simultaneously supple and resistant, all models are lined with Cambrelle® for extra protection and comfort. The sole is slip resistant, with edges that are slightly beveled so as to conceal the tread and give the shoe a finer profile.

The collection includes several models:

Orion S3: Elegant loafer
Pegase S3: Derby shoe in smooth leather.
Vega S3: Brogue shoe, classic and elegant.
Zenith S3: This is the up-and-coming model, featuring the collection's sportiest look. It protects the ankle and provides support.

To complete the collection, Lemaitre Securite offers the superb Sirius S3 model: an elegant Derby made of full-grain, water-repellent black leather, supple and resistant. It features the refinement of a town shoe, lined with smooth, fine leather for extra comfort and full elegance.

o Ultra-light and resistant polycarbonate toe (200 joules - EN ISO 20345).
o Anti-perforation insole made of high-resistance textile: lightweight, flexible, inalterable, and resistant to perforation over 100% of the sole's surface area (EN ISO 20345).
o Double-density polyurethane sole.
