To create something outstanding we sometimes need to break with tradition and common thinking. GEOX was born thanks to an unconventional idea of Mario Moretti Polegato, who cut holes in his rubber-soled shoes with a Swiss Army knife to relieve his overheated feet when walking through the Nevada desert. This brilliant idea was improved, tested and patented, but the idea of the "shoe that breathes" was not backed by footwear producers. Instead of abandoning his idea, Polegato founded an independent company in the 1990s. In a few years, it became leader in Italy and one of the major world companies in the lifestyle-casual footwear market. Today, as an international group that has registered over 60 patents, GEOX produces footwear, clothing and accessories. The wide range of Geox products, intended to meet the needs of the entire family, matches a strong technological content based on wellbeing and comfort, with contemporary style. A volte per creare qualcosa di straordinario bisogna rompere con le tradizioni e con il pensiero comune. È così che è nata GEOX: da un'idea fuori dagli schemi di Mario Moretti Polegato, che per alleviare il surriscaldamento dei piedi durante una passeggiata nel deserto del Nevada, ha letteralmente bucato la suola delle scarpe che indossava con un coltellino svizzero. Questa geniale intuizione è stata poi migliorata, testata e brevettata, ma l'idea della "scarpa che respira" non ha trovato sostenitori nel mondo dei produttori calzaturieri. Polegato non si è però dato per vinto e ha creato un'azienda indipendente, che in pochi anni è diventata leader in Italia e tra le prime al mondo nel settore delle calzature lifestyle-casual. Oggi, come gruppo internazionale depositario di oltre 60 brevetti, GEOX produce calzature, abbigliamento e accessori. Ogni prodotto delle collezioni Geox, tese a soddisfare le esigenze di tutta la famiglia, coniuga uno spiccato contenuto tecnologico con lo stile contemporaneo.
