New StretchWalker shoe launched

28/08/2008

The new StretchWalker shoe, dubbed ‘probably the most comfortable walking shoe on the planet’ has been launched.

It features Xsensible stretch leather technology and is based on the Japanese Ippon-Ba-Geta sandal, which promotes automatic roll-off of the foot, reducing pressure on the joints and spine. The rocker bottom sole comprises two soft EVA parts and a reinforcement part. This can make walking easier and improve posture.

Netherlands-based brand Xsensible has been working with its Japanese partners for two years to develop the shoe.
