Michigan-based shoe firm Hush Puppies is celebrating its 50^th year in business this year.

The casual shoe firm started out making supple suede in combination with lightweight crepe soles and has continued to make comfortable, practical footwear since then. The company, which is now a division of Wolverine World Wide, still uses the distinctive basset hound logo and its shoes are sold in more than 120 countries.
