Caterpillar Boots Help Fitness Footwear to Beat Post-Christmas Credit Crunch

While Woolworths closes and the high street shrinks, online retailer Fitness Footwear has seen massive success in January thanks to the cold and icy weather conditions which sparked the sale of countless Caterpillar boots.



    HERTFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND, January 08, 2009 /24-7PressRelease/ -- High street sales have been down this month, but while the online retailer market soars as shoppers log on to make the biggest savings, sales for Fitness Footwear and many other online shoe specialists has been soaring as the need to warm and cosy footwear for the cold weather conditions climbs.

Top of the consumer searches are Caterpillar boots, which are now in high demand as a recognised brand of winter walking boot that combines recognition, familiarity and fine quality with excellent grip to provide all the comfort and style people need on their walk to work, to the shops or during apres ski.

This makes them the perfect snow boots. for a short walk to and from the ski resort bar, kicking back in comfort after a hard day of skiing or simply beating the cold and frosty weather that has gripped the nation in the recent weeks.

Boasting the full range of Caterpillar boots, the Hertfordshire based retailer prides itself on offering a huge choice of walking boots and outdoor shoes while specialising in a variety of sports shoes and active footwear.
