Supposedly if you put your hand up in a flat fist and made a swipe like a house cat batting at an imaginary ball of string in shoe repair circles in mid-century America, the room would chant back “Cat’s Paw
!” The cult status of the rubber heel and sole manufacturer has long been a part of the American lexicon–Amelia Earhart supposedly died wearing a pair of Cat's Paw-heeled loafers.
The brand was bought by rubber company
Biltrite
in the 1960s (who was subsequently swallowed byVibram
) who slowly phased out the brand. Despite their obsolescence, the Cat’s Paw name and logo continue to be a draw among vintage enthusiasts and repro brands.(Heddels website)
