The Cat’s Paw half non-slip sole are a cult favorite with its distinctive pattern and semi-namesake little slip-resistant white dots. This early-to-mid-century-originating rubber heel is admired for having both a playful distinctive design and a practical use in boots and shoes of all kinds.

Cat’s Paw was founded in Baltimore, MD as Cat’s Paw Rubber Co. in 1904. These items have not been in production for more than 50 years as the brand was bought by rubber company Biltrite in the 1960s, who was subsequently swallowed by Vibram, who slowly phased out the brand. Amelia Earhart supposedly died wearing a pair of Cat’s Paw-heeled loafers which catapulted the cult status of the rubber heel and sole manufacturer.
