Like many other things, the wellness category has changed during the pandemic. "We are hearing from retailers that their athletic and outdoor categories continue to grow exponentially," says Kitty Bolinger, EVP of sales, Dansko. "We continued to see steady demand for our outdoor product, specifically the Paisley, throughout 2020. In 2021, we introduced a highly technical walking shoe that exceeded our expectations." For many retailers, the past year was challenging as many consumers were reluctant to visit stores. But retailer Thomas Peterson, owner of Foot Savvy in Colorado, says, "Our clients now have a more heightened sense of overall health and appreciation of taking better care of their bodies, especially their feet." Angela S. Caltagirone, SVP and GM, Vionic, agrees: "People discovered they really benefit from having something supportive under foot while working remotely and being at home all the time; an environment where they maybe never wore shoes before." n The Evolution of Wellness ® S u p p o r t M a d e C o m f o r t a b l e Cadence® Insoles provide a unique combination of contoured support with enhanced shock absorbing comfort under the heel and forefoot.
