The importance of chemical testing for footwear Product safety is paramount and, with many products sourced from the global marketplace, it can be difficult to keep abreast of what is required in different parts of the world in terms of legislation on chemicals and restricted substances. This can be a veritable minefield and has the potential to be costly in terms of finance and reputation.

Are you aware of the different legislation which applies to your footwear?

Does your company have a testing programme to ensure that your footwear does not contain hazardous chemicals?

Is your footwear fit for purpose?

These questions are particularly important when dealing with children’s footwear.

Depending on where your customers are located you will need to be familiar with the following: United States CPSIA - the consumer product safety improvement act of 2008 controls the amount of lead and phthalates in consumer products intended primarily for children 12 years old or under.

Proposition 65 is an initiative to address growing concerns about exposure to toxic chemicals. It covers all products and services distributed in the State of California and requires that warnings via labelling, newspaper notices, etc are issued relating to chemicals on the Proposition 65 list, which includes over 800 chemicals.

Europe REACH – deals with the Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemical substances and all products supplied within Europe must be compliant, in particular substances identified as being of very high concern (SVHCs).

China GB standards are mandatory for leather products sold into China and brands in breach of GB standards may have their products seized from stores.

To ensure consistent quality and performance for footwear, BLC recommends that you set realistic specifications, coupled with a sensible and balanced chemical testing regime in line with current legislation and industry standards.

If you are concerned about hazardous chemicals or need support on legislation please contact info@blcleathertech.com or visit www.blcleathertech.com 15

JJ Footwear: for all shapes and sizes.

JJ Footwear is a celebrated Dutch company that has a proud tradition of making premium quality footwear. Today the company is run by family member Carl van der Putten. He works with a band of dedicated employees and insists that the customer always come first.

Carl has driven through a significant change over the past decade after he identified a huge gap in the market. He realised that countless women were being denied the chance to wear beautiful and comfortable boots because they could not find anything that fitted comfortably. He focused the company on the need to produce boots with multiple width fittings.

His beliefs can be summed up in the following: "We know all women love their boots and shoes. We also know that beauty does not come in a one size fits all package. That's why we have designed our unique range with multiple width fittings.

Any woman wearing our creations can be confident of a perfect fit in gorgeous footwear. Our new collection of Autumn/Winter boots includes all the classic JJ Footwear creations along with the addition of our new desert and wedge boot designs. The sophisticated design twists lend themselves to the smooth suede and calf skin leather.

Traditional Oxford style lacing add shape to the silhouette whilst the overall design features of the heel counter maintain the signature JJ Footwear comfort and style.

GORE-TEX® footwear with SURROUND™ Product Technology For the Spring Summer season, and it’s all too unpredictable weather, consider stocking the latest fusion between design and technology. These products offer the wearer 360 degree climate comfort, high breathability with the added benefit of 100% waterproofness. Clarks, Legero, Superfit, Primigi and Ara all have styles featuring this innovation.

How does the Technology Work?

A new GORE-TEX® laminate that allows the entire foot to breathe as well as remaining durably waterproof, forms an integral part of the shoe’s construction. A unique open sole structure has been designed into the footwear. This allows excess heat and sweat to pass through the GORETEX® membrane and to the outside of the shoe. The openings in the sole and the GORE-TEX® membrane are protected by a robust non-woven fabric which prevents the membrane from being pierced by for example, walking over stones or sharp objects, so protecting the wearer from any discomfort.

The openings in the sole are a clear indication of its breathability so consumers can immediately see the potential benefits of this new functionality. What’s more, the innovative structure of the sole opens up completely new and exciting design opportunities for Gore’s brand partners.

For further information regarding GORE-TEX® Footwear with SURROUND® Product Technology, retail support and training please contact Angela Robb on 01506 460123 or email arobb@wlgore.com 19

Cushe After Ride Boots The Endless Winter Exactly as the name suggests, these cosy shearling lined waterproof boots are designed for post-sport feet but unlike their sheepskin counterparts the boots feature waterproof seam sealed construction, performance suede and a moulded VibramÂŽ rubber outsole and tread that's more akin to a sturdy hiking boots. Teaming comfort from the moulded EVA with memory foam foot cushioning and shearling warmth with technical feature make Cushe's After Ride a truly versatile Outdoor footwear choice for Winter.

Over the past few months Cushe Footwear ambassador Mitch Corbett has been off on a road-trip around the UK, heading up a fascinating documentary project alongside fellow pro-surfer Mark 'Egor' Harris entitled The Endless Winter.

The pair have been meeting the legends and pioneers of the British surf scene to trace the history of the sport through our much maligned weather conditions, and the movie trailer jam-packed with vintage surf footage and stories of wooly jumpers worn under old wetsuits has just been released. So Cushe talked to Mitch about surviving the British Winter and the release of Cushe's new After Ride Boot, designed to keep feet warm, dry and Cushe in the depths of our seemingly endless Winter.
