Treadloom / East Baton Rouge pilot

Keep the shoe.
Change the working surface.

Treadloom is a normal-looking work shoe with a detachable, replaceable outsole system—designed for slip resistance on wet and greasy floors.

Why modular

A work shoe built around the part that meets the floor.

Workers and employers are solving different problems. The first Treadloom pilot is designed to learn from both.

For workers

Keep the upper that already fits.

A familiar work shoe stays in rotation while the outsole changes with the working surface. Less relearning your shoe; a practical way to plan the next tread.

For employers

Start a practical local pilot.

Bring Treadloom to the people who spend their shifts on wet or greasy floors. We are inviting East Baton Rouge employers to help shape the first pilot.

The starting point

One upper, one replaceable outsole.

The modular idea is intentionally straightforward: keep the part that fits, change the part that does the floor work, and learn what teams need next.

The connection

Align. Slide. Lock.

Low-profile receiver channels stay in the upper. Matching rails sit on the separate full-coverage flexible outsole. Together they create a mechanical align-slide-lock connection.

The rail is the attachment mechanism. The tread is the surface that meets the floor.

  1. 01 / ALIGN

    Set the upper over the outsole.

    Low-profile receiver channels in the retained upper line up with the matching rails on the separate outsole.

  2. 02 / SLIDE

    Slide the rails into place.

    The full-coverage flexible outsole moves along the channels. The rails are the attachment mechanism, not the tread.

  3. 03 / LOCK

    Engage the mechanical connection.

    A final lock secures the aligned parts together. No glue is part of the connection concept.

See the connection in three steps The rails attach. The tread works.

A local first step

Let’s learn what a modular work shoe needs on your floor.

Workers know what needs to hold up through a shift. Employers know what a practical rollout has to answer. Treadloom is looking for both perspectives in East Baton Rouge.

Straight answers

What we can say now.

What does “modular” mean here?

The shoe has two intentional parts: a normal-looking upper with low-profile receiver channels, and a separate full-coverage flexible outsole with matching rails. The outsole is the replaceable module.

What is the attachment mechanism?

The rails align with the receiver channels, slide into place, and lock mechanically. The rails make the connection; the tread is the working surface beneath them.

Who is the first pilot for?

Treadloom is gathering interest from workers and employers in the East Baton Rouge launch market, especially teams whose shifts include wet or greasy floors. Pilot details are still being shaped.
