  • Indonesian Footwear Producers Launch New Product Lines Suitable for Canadian Consumers
    CANADA–INDONESIA TRADE AND TPSA PRIVATE SECTOR ASSISTANCE PROJECT Indonesian Footwear Producers Launch New Product Lines Suitable for Canadian Consumers Many SMEs in the Indonesian footwear sector focus on the domestic market and lack exporting experience. This was true for the five TPSA-sponsored footwear SMEs. One area where they lacked expertise or knowledge was in developing new products to meet the needs of the Canadian and North American consumer. In response, the project focused on supporting production of new footwear products that are in demand not only in Canada but worldwide. EXPANDING FROM MILITARY TO STREETWEAR Sisters Henny and Lenny Setiadi run Venamon, a company that makes footwear for the Indonesian army and local police forces. Started by their father in 1976, the transition to Venamon’s second generation has gone smoothly, and the company is now run by the two sisters and their brother, Eric, who serves as SUCCESS STORY SUCCESS The traditional jungle Now converted into a very hip fashion boot by adding boot produced by an outside collar, streamlining the toe and heel shape, Venamon before their adding contrast webbing re-enforcement at the ankle, participation in the adding contrast lacing, and adding two zippers up TPSA project. the back to make it easy to get on and off.

  • When You First Spy the Exustar Ladies Boot on the Shelf You
    When you first spy the Exustar Ladies boot on the shelf you can’t believe it’s a motorcycle boot! It looks just like all the boots we’ve been wearing every day along with our [tucked in] skinny jeans! And that’s what’s so fantastic – top motorcycle boot safety and performance with style and function in the truest form! The finish is clean; the accented dark silver buckles a sophisticated touch, and the comfort riding or walking is unsurmatched! Yes the Exustar Ladies Touring Boot is a superbly comfortable boot to walk in! The treaded sole is firm and of gripping rubber. It acts well when on the peg plus gives a great sense of security when feet are planted on the ground supporting the weight of your motorcycle! The addition of a small heel, I find personally find perfect as it gives enough of a lift but works well on the foot pegs of your bike as you move your foot forward and back. The overall fit is incredible too especially around the calves! The boot is 34 cm's high and its usually too big in upper leg zone, but the Exustar fits snug. My personal boot size is 38 and the diameter of the boot top is 35 cm's which is snug. But the elastic extension added to the design allows for give; a slight bit of stretch. Looks fab with skinny jeans tucked in! On top of it all this it’s entirely waterproof! There’s a reinforced waterproof panel behind the zipper and the inside is lined with a soft comfortable breathable material.
