The story of the Tiger Corsair™ is a defining moment in sports shoe history. The Tiger Corsair™ was initially developed for the American market with increased cushioning, arch cookies, full length midsole and a redesigned thicker heel. This thicker heel enabled greater shock absorption, and made the shoes more comfortable for non-sports use. The Corsair™ not only kick started the 1970's jogging boom, but significantly was the first shoe to be used as lifestyle leisurewear and not just sporting goods. This model was originally introduced in 1969 as model T-24 and known as "Cortez". It was renamed the Corsair™ following a 1974 legal judgment. 2005 marks the 30th Anniversary of its introduction to market.
