As early as 19th century Lewis Haslam, a Lancashire mill owner and politician, started his experiments with creation of a new fabric which makes it impossible for the cold of the atmosphere to penetrate into the shoe. In the result, the Aertex Company was set up. And it gained the popularity extremely fast. By the year of 1891 Aertex footwear was widely used by the middle class. Even The British Army wore its shoes in World War II.

The name of Aertex was derived from Ae-Treks which means One Journey. This footwear is made for comfort and active lifestyle. Along with shoes Aertex manufactures sportswear too. Since 1960s the company is widely used by sportsmen at tennis, cricket, netball and football champions including Wimbledon and the English World cup. Since 1980s Aertex considerably influences sports fashion. Nowadays the company’s popularity is so high that its stores can be found worldwide.

Aertex has launched such lines of menswear as Polo Shirts, Knitwear, Shirts, Underwear and T-Shirts. Among shoe lines there are Ambulator, Stealth, Essence, Rhino, Sedona and others.

Aertex offers customers to "live life your way". The company produces footwear for casual, dress, official and sportswear. For more than 60 years Aertex has been the first in applying pedorthic expertise to high-performance footwear and technologies. Such shoes fit the foot properly, let you feel comfortable and be active at the same time.
