RAFTERS. TREAD LIGHTER.
The Rafters team derives from 30 years and three generations of retail. We're retailers at heart and know how to think like a retailer.
Our Northwest reputation has been built on paying special care to each customer that walks in the door of Burch's, our venue in Eugene, Oregon. The atmosphere is comfortable and hospitable, making a great visit while the customers find the perfect shoe or sandal. Once there, they keep coming back.
So too, the culture of Rafters carries this philosophy onward. As distributer of Rafters sandals, you will receive that same care and service. Equally important, you will enjoy selling a high quality product with a unique look offered at a price that adds generously to your bottom line. If you or your customers are not completely satisfied, we'll take care of your by standing behind our product and service commitment. Satisfaction is guaranteed.
Additionally, we know how important it is to take great care of our environment. We pride ourselves on offering not just durable, high-quality footwear, but an environmentally friendly product at an affordable price by integrating recycled and natural materials into innovative design.
"Virtually every footwear maker out there is making some kind of claim about how eco-friendly they are," says Bill Combs, Rafters Footwear CEO. "But we can bring our products in a lot greener than theirs and at a much more affordable price."
During the last ten years, Rafters designers and product managers have devised innovative methods of producing footwear using recycled materials.
- Upper webbing is made of recycled PET from plastic water and soda bottles.
- Outsoles are made from 25% recycled rubber.
- Lining is made from 60% bamboo fiber.
- Mid wedges and outsoles are infused with jute plant fiber and cork, reducing the amount of rubber needed for production.
