You can often assess a business or brand by its longevity and with Magnum it is exactly what you've. Magnum footwear started existence in the Hi-Tec Sports brand, which was started in Shoeburyness (how appropriate!) in Essex, England long ago in 1974. Their very first shoe was specifically for the game of squash and to date the lead pages shoe they make has recorded sales well over 18 million pairs worldwide. In 1982, the title Magnum was initially introduced into the Hello-Tec variety with the Hello-Tec Magnum boots.
