FCC launches flexible leather soles

24/08/2011
Brazilian footwear components manufacturer FCC, Fornecedora de Componentes para Calçados, which specialises in veg-tanned leather products, has developed a new line of flexible leather soles in a wide range of colours.

FCC said on launching the soles that they would increase comfort levels in shoes and would help footwear brands add value to their shoes. “They have all the comfort of flexible soles, but all the class of leather,” the company said.

It said it hoped manufacturers focused on the higher end of the market, whether for the domestic or export markets, would see the value in offering special soles such as these.
