Feiyue is a Chinese shoe brand founded in Shanghai[6] owned by Dafu Rubber Co., Ltd.[1] The brand was acquired by Feiyue International, a subsidiary of BBC International LLC in 2014.[5][2][7]
The word "Feiyue" (simplified Chinese: 飞跃; traditional Chinese: 飛躍; pinyin: fēi yuè) means "to leap" or "to fly over" and is reminiscent of the Great Leap Forward.[8]
The shoes were first produced in Shanghai during the 1920s. Since 2006 there have been two separate companies creating Feiyue shoes: Da Fu Rubber and its subsidiary manufacturer, Double Coin Holdings, and a French company operating separately from the original Chinese company.[6][9]
A number of performers wore Feiyue China shoes during the opening of the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. Actor Orlando Bloom was spotted wearing the French version of Feiyue shoes.[3][10][11]
The Chinese factory has 3,000 employees producing 36,000 pairs a day, with an average of 5,000,000 pairs sold in China yearly.[6]
