DeFeet International HAS BEEN VOTED “BUSINESS OF THE YEAR” FOR 2012 by the publication BUSINESS NORTH CAROLINA. The award represents a milestone for DeFeet, a company that was brought to it’s knees by a devastating fire in 2001. DeFeet was chosen from a long list of great North Carolina businesses in many different business categories. Shane Cooper, DeFeet’s founder, President, and “Chief Sockologist”, received the award in person.
