Maker "Dr Sole" Profile is Inaccurate

I just read through the whole Dr Sole Maker profile and the whole backstory of the company seems inaccurate. For what they do, some of it is correct, like referencing their Game Changer boot. But they have since launched their own brand called Pioneer. So unsure if this whole Maker should just be changed to "Pioneer" or "Dr Sole / Pioneer".

They are from Taiwan, manufacturing their incredible rubber soles in southern China. A good source of info for this brand can be found here:

    Hey ryanpiyo, I just finished redoing the Dr. Sole description. You can read it here. Let me know if everything looks good.

    I am in the middle of reworking our internal process for cataloging specs, and after that is done, I will revisit the Pioneer/Dr. Sole problem.

    You are welcome to request changes for more articles anytime, I appreciate the help.
