First introduced in 1937 by the B.F. Goodrich Company, PF Flyers uses Posture Foundation insole technology, which is the basis for the brand name. PF Flyers footwear ranges from high and lo-top sporty shoes to oxfords and slip-ons for ‘work, relaxation, and play.’ Sport styles by PF were icons of the 1950’s, renowned for helping you ‘play at full speed longer.’ The brand earned a permanent place in American mythology, lionized in stories and films such as “The Sandlot.” In the first collaboration between a sneaker company and a pro player, PF and Bob Cousy, basketball’s first superstar, created a string of classic court designs. Cousy catapulted to sport legend wearing PF Flyers. By the 1960’s, PF Flyers was one of the most popular sneaker brands in America, women would buy apparel made to match their PF’s and they were also the standard issue in the US Army.
