In 1925, C.L. Best Tractor Company joined
forces with the Holt Manufacturing Company, creating a revolutionary new brand
– Caterpillar. Upon its emergence, Caterpillar quickly gained a name as one of
the leading manufacturers of machinery and engines in the world, a reputation
that it still maintains today.
Not content with simply designing and
manufacturing over 300 types of machine, Caterpillar decided to branch out into
footwear. Just like their machinery, Caterpillar boots are incredibly durable,
well-made and long lasting. They rapidly became the boot of choice for
construction workers, with an estimated 57 million pairs sold between 1994 and
2005.
Recent times, however, have seen a move that not even Caterpillar could have
predicted. The fashion world has claimed the boot, transforming the shoe from a
safety essential to a stylish must-have. Many A-list celebrities have been seen
sporting the look, with Rita Ora and Kanye West all big fans of the iconic
brand.
But it is not difficult to see why so many
fashionistas have adopted the Caterpillar boot. Normally, fashion involves
teetering around on skyscraper heels. The boot, on the other hand, offers
practicality and comfort alongside style.
The urban military trend has been popular
for a while now, and shows no signs of letting up any time soon. The classic Caterpillar
boot fits right in with this trend and is a popular choice for many looking to
nail this look.
Caterpillar are not limited to just
producing one style of boot though. There are a range of fashionable boots,
shoes and even sandals which encompass the quality and durability of the
original.
Caterpillar is a brand that is sure to
continue to grow in the coming years, emphasizing its presence as a high
quality fashion brand.
