Seeking extreme comfort, Sapatoterapia produces women s and men s shoes. The Brazilian brand has prepared a collection focused on the 2010/2011 autumn-winter in the Northern Hemisphere, as a way of investing in the international market. Therefore, the company takes a new collection to GDS, German fair that takes place in the city of Düsseldorf, between March 12 and 14.

The products of the masculine line, more sober, are based on classic winter colors such as black, coffee, wine and some earthy tones. The feminine line makes room to a wider range of leathers - sheep, goat and varnish - and of colors, such as caramel, white marble, gray and green. The prints are also in evidence, and the snake texture stands out. The heels are medium and low-block-shaped or wedge and the toes vary from round to square. 

The brand has participated in GDS four times “with excellent results”, according to the export manager, Daniel Figueiredo. “We could always open up new customers and close sales at the same time. Moreover, the spread of the brand is really our main goal”, he stresses. During the German tradeshow, customers from Russia, England and the Middle East, among others, are expected.

Sapatoterapia, located in the city of Franca, in the State of São Paulo, participates in GDS through the Brazilian Footwear - Footwear Exportations Promotion Program, developed by Brazilian Footwear Industries Association (Abicalçados) in partnership with Brazilian Trade and Investments Promotion Agency (Apex-Brasil) from the federal government.
