Piloti Announces a Limited Edition Bob Bondurant Signature DTM Exclusively Available at the Bondurant School of High Performance Driving

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., Aug. 19, 2005 -- Piloti Inc., the premier driving shoe manufacturer, announces the release of its Limited Edition Bob Bondurant Signature DTM shoe available only at the Bondurant School of High Performance Driving in Phoenix, AZ.

The Bondurant DTM is constructed of rich baseball glove leather, is SFI legal and, like all Piloti Driving Shoes, can be worn all day, every day. Piloti's patented Roll Control(TM) heel technology provides a biomechanical advantage while driving and complete comfort outside the vehicle.

"The Bondurant DTM came out of a conversation Bob and I had at Piloti's annual dinner prior to the SEMA show last year," said Kevin A. Beard, Piloti founder and Chief Designer, "Bob has been a long time supporter of Piloti and we were finalizing our marketing partnership when Bob told me the story of a pair of driving shoes he had made for himself back in the 60's out of baseball glove leather. We had never done a signature shoe before, but given the nature of our relationship, both personally and professionally, I got really excited about the material story."

The Bob Bondurant Signature DTM will be available only in tan and brown baseball glove leather with Bondurant yellow stitching at an MSRP of $135.00. The Bob Bondurant Signature DTM will debut at the Bondurant School of High Performance Driving booth at the Rolex Monterey Historic Automobile Races at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca held August 19-21.
