About Goodyear
Goodyear has been a well known brand through the years and began over 115 years ago. It is dedicated to uncompromising standards and performance. Frank Seiberling founded The Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company back in 1898 to create carriage and bicycle tires that would outperform the competition on rough roads. Today Goodyear is the trusted name for tires on dirt, asphalt, and the street. They have a passion for making tires that keeps them ahead of their competition today. Now the greatest name in rubber is making industrial quality shoes.
This is the Goodyear Clutch shoe. It is in the Performance collection and comes in white/black as shown above, and black/white as well. It is made of light weight synthetic performance upper material with a EVA/ Rubber outsole. It is breathable and has cushion in it. The tread on the bottom of the shoe is the best part. It looks like tire tread.
This shoe is extremely light and was easy to put on and take off. It has a velcro strap at the top to tighten the shoe more around the ankle for better comfort. These shoes were very comfortable. I got them for my teen son, not my husband. He said they were great and had great grip on surfaces, even rain slicked grass.
Here is the tread. Looks just like a tire doesn’t it, but no it is the bottom of the shoes. I love the details that just bring a product to the next level. This brand sets itself apart in the name and quality of its product. My husband works in a tire shop, and I will probably be getting him some of the work boots at some point. Right now they have set shoes they must order, but when that changes I know just the shoe for him. It would have to be the Daytona W work boot in the color briar. That one is waterproof, slip resistant, and oil resistant. Plus it looks great.
My son does not like trying to get boots on and off, so he picked sneakers instead. Thankfully Goodyear makes different styles since we all like different things. This shoe above is the Goodyear Index. It comes in the white and blue or black and silver. It is also part of the performance racing collection. It is a light weight shoe made of synthetic performance material with a EVA, rubber outsole. Much like the clutch except it is a lower shoe. The shoes are so light you can barely tell they if the shoe box was empty. These shoes will be great for trips since they are so light. When you have lots of walking to do it is ideal to have less weight to have to lift. Plus they are breathable and get great traction.
These are some sharp looking shoes. They say Goodyear on the blue part. You cannot tell in the picture, but it looks cool on there. These are great shoes and would make any guy happy.
