MOZO Shoes® brings inspiration to female footwear through a collaboration with acclaimed Chef and lifestyle entrepreneur Cat Cora
June 17, 2013 – Goleta, CA – MOZO® Shoes, creator
of innovative footwear for culinary professionals and a division of Deckers
Outdoor Corporation (NASDAQGS: DECK) reveals an exciting creative collaboration
with acclaimed chef and lifestyle entrepreneur Cat Cora. With two
lines, the Caviar Collection and the Farmers Market Collection, the MOZO-Cora collaboration speaks to culinary influencers of all types – from the mother who
is passionate about experimenting in the kitchen to the industry professional
working long hours on her feet. Beginning June 15, 2013, the shoes will be
available nationwide through select retailers and online at www.Zappos.com.
“We are thrilled to introduce this
partnership with Cat; beyond being our first footwear collaboration with a
female chef, MOZO is honored to partner with such an inspiring trailblazer in
the industry. With the Caviar and Farmers Market Collections we are giving women a stylish and thoughtfully designed
option for both everyday wear and professional footwear,” says Jeff Bua, MOZO
Brand President.
As the first female Iron Chef, a
successful restaurateur, author of three cookbooks, an avid philanthropist, and
the first female inducted into the American Academy of Chefs® Culinary Hall of
Fame, Cora indeed offers a seasoned perspective on what female culinary
professionals and influencers look for in a shoe.
“My collection is about supporting
women as they move throughout their day. Whether at work, around the home, or
running errands, women need a shoe that not only performs in a culinary atmosphere
but also complements their lifestyle and personal flair,” says Cora.
The Caviar Collection includes the Divine, a refined clog in black and
brown leather, and the Fresco, a beautiful wedge in black
and brown leather with teal accents. The Farmers Market Collection is a
casual and colorful line including two flats: the Sport and the Fab. Both silhouettes are
available in black leather and in assorted waxed canvas colors such as black,
walnut, pink, yellow, and green.
