The brand will also relaunch Nolita, a wedge heel with crisp linen uppers and accents. Hush Puppies dresses up the ballerina flat for spring '08 with “Break”, a polka-dot suede flat in silver metallic, red and lavender, and “Bubble-Up,” a lightweight rubber sole and bubble sock Mary Jane.

Continuing to deliver stylish trendsetting footwear is ECCO with the debut of the “Supreme Sandal” for spring '08. Designed with ECCO's patented DIP technology, this strappy 50mm wedge heel sandal combines beautiful leathers in black patent and espresso with comfort.

Also debuting is ECCO's Summer Ballerina Collection for spring '08, which will include a perforated mary jane in gold and silver metallics.

New Zealand-based Kumfs, known for catering to women who require orthotics, is making fashion achievable for these consumers with two new lines. Feminine and fashionable, the D-series sandal collection in silver,old gold and bronze includes Aztec and Roman stylings with embroidered stitching for a contemporary look. The X-series casual sport line has fashion elements that include patterned leather and detailing in old gold, taupe and chili.

“Research has shown that women are thinking younger and no longer want to be thought of as their age,” said Anne Casey, Kumfs marketing director. “Women want shoes that look more youthful and that still feel good on their feet.”

Sacrificing style for comfort is not an option for Tsonga, known for its hand-stitched South African leather footwear and handbags.

Tsonga will debut its nature-inspired Naturally African spring '08 collection that includes comfort features for the fashion-conscious woman. Dockers will launch its spring '08 leather beach sandals collection for women that features sponge rubber midsoles for comfort.

The upcoming WSA Show, July 30 – August 1, will feature more than 1,600 exhibitors showcasing 6,000 brands spanning the world's most prominent names. Events at The WSA Show will be held at the Las Vegas Convention Center. Events for The Collections at WSA are held at The Venetian Hotel and Resort.
