In the years after the war, materials were scarce and it was then when the company introduced the concept of using old car tyres as a soling for boots.
Gradually since then the methods of manufacturing footwear have changed as petroleum based products such as glues, rubbers and plastics have replaced the traditional ones of leather, nails and threads.
More modern machinery has been introduced than can directly mould soles to the bottom of boots and can easily pull leather over a last.
Since then the company has continued to change; introducing computer controlled machines for cutting, sewing and attaching soles.
Whilst the introduction of these machines reduced the number of local staff, it has enabled Rossi Boots to continue to manufacture in Australia.
