Gallaz shoes started its operation in the year 2000. They started out with manufacturing skate shoes exclusively for women. Although skating has been very popular with the girls just like the boys the latter part of the 1990s saw a newer interest generated by girls in the sport. With Gallaz shoes in the market one could see a whole new resurgence in the interest for skating. The shoes brought along with it a never before known comfort and fit. The shoes also provided ample support to the feet of the wearer.
The parent company of Gallaz shoes is Globe. Although the company thought of a simple venture when they decided to make skate shoes, the stupendous success of the shoes gave them the confidence to try other styles as well. The company introduced a new line of footwear that one can wear as a casual wear or even for a stroll. They have since diversified into a whole new range of fashion footwear, which includes leather boots, leather sandals, canvas shoes and even ballet flats. Even though the brand now produces fashion footwear, the company still shows its commitment towards action sports and has shown their support to a large women’s squad of surfers and skaters.
The company's range of fashion footwear includes boots, sneakers, shoes, slippers, sandals, and thongs. The company also produces really smart and good designs of socks apart from kid's shoes. The kid's shoes collection though not very large at present, the available designs are much liked and sought after.
Some of the well-known designs in the boots section would be Rawhide, which is available in three colors camel, chocolate and black. The netted design with a buckle at the bottom gives the boot a very unique look. The heels add to the style of the design. "Iva" is another unique style of shoe available in four colors i.e. black, neutral grey, winter white and chocolate. The "Maui" design in shoes are available in 3 colors namely, black marle/yellow, grey marle/fuschia and fuschia marle/grey. The shoes with a floral print inner sole add a touch of femininity to the shoes. A small design at the heel gives it a stylish look. There are various other models of shoes available from Gallaz, each of them having a touch of class to it making it a tough task to make a selection.
The brand has been hugely successful from the beginning as quality and style are the two things that are never compromised.
