New issue of Footwearbiz magazine available
From the start of 2025, our sister magazine’s name is now Footwearbiz and the first issue of the year is now available. The name is new, but the title carries forward World Footwear’s more than 120 years of publishing news and in-depth articles about the global shoe industry.
The publication’s main focus continues to be on materials, manufacturing and innovation, but in addition each issue will have a special theme which will inform all three sections in the magazines. The sections continue to be Materials, Manufacturing, Innovation; Athletic and Outdoor; and Business of Footwear. The special theme in the first issue of the year is soling and insoles.
As well as being available online, printed copies of each issue will go to subscribers, as they have done for so many decades. Printed copies will also be available for distribution at key industry exhibitions around the world throughout the year.
For example, visitors to the February editions of the North West Materials Show in Portland, and the North East Materials Show in Boston will find copies of this first issue of Footwearbiz at the events.
We look forward to continuing our coverage of innovation in footwear for many years to come.
