Bush 'Shoe Maker' Hit By Demand


Turkish shoe firm Baydan Shoes (www.baydanshoes.com/tr/) says it has had to take on 100 extra staff to cope with a surge in orders after an Iraqi threw shoes at former US President Bush.

The Istanbul-based company claims it made the shoes and says it now has tens of thousands of orders from around the world - including from the US and Iraq. The shoe was called Model 271 but shall be renamed Bye Bye Bush, the firm said.
