Arbesko Newsblog

It’s here – Arbesko’s new catalogue for 2012/2013! Loaded with first class shoes and accessories for working feet.

We are, amongst other things, introducing two new and tough safety shoes you simply have to take a closer look at – Arbesko 416 and 426. Two sleek models in a fresh design, with soft penetration protection, aluminium toe cap, inbuilt shock absorption in the shape of Energy Gel® and ESD function.

We have also taken this opportunity to update our range of sandals. Arbesko 1377, 1387 and 1397 are three light and comfortable models making an entry, with a raised, shock absorbing foot bed to support the arch of the foot.

Our top class ComfOrtho insert, anatomically molded to prevent and relieve common ailments associated with too high or too low an arch has also been improved and is now equipped with ESD function. We are also introducing a third insert – ComfOrtho 10286 – specially molded for extra high arched feet.

And of course our popular range of metal free safety shoes!

Arbesko were there again this year, when the STCC races took place between 9th and 10th of July. This year was not like other years though, it was something very special – as sponsors of “Mattias Ekström Junior Team” we spent the weekend backstage with the DTM champion Mattias Ekström and his Junior Team, which promotes young, promising race drivers. The team, who all wore Arbesko model 350, were represented by two young talents in this year’s race; Dick Sahlén and Roger Eriksson who both drove a Seat Leon. Obviously with the Arbesko logo on the front!

A big thank you to the Mattias Ekström Junior Team for a great weekend!

Check out the film clips from STCC!

As you may already know, we held a competition during Swedish Youth Skills in Gothenburg where people were asked to dance or in other ways show what it felt like to wear our shoes with Energy Gel. We filmed them and put all the clips on Facebook for people to vote. This turned out to be very popular, as many as 67 people took part! Voting ends on May 31st.

We had just desembled the video camera when more people turned up asking if they could take part, so we started a new competition; ”The Energy Gel Photo Contest” where people put on work clothes, and obviously our shoes, and posed in front of a camera. The photos were also posted on Facebook and voting ends on May 31st.

We would like to thank all the imaginative and enthusiastic young  people for a great couple of days in Gothenburg and for all the really cool entries!
