NITRO LAST
Nitro LastTM is a brand-new material that epitomizes Stanbee’s quest for thinner, stronger, more resilient components. As part of our proprietary foaming process, we inject nitrogen gas into its polymer core. The result? Exceptionally lightweight heel counters and box toes. Plus, this thermodynamic, extruded plastic maintains its shape while providing an uber-comfortable in-shoe experience. Nitro LastTM contains 55% recycled material and is available in our Zero Waste Net Part Program. It’s a sustainable, high-quality, cost-effective solution for all of your heel counter or box-toe applications. Our standard offerings are below. Call about custom options with and without laminates.
