The innovative SOFT-AIR TECHNOLOGY is the secret behind the extraordinary walking comfort when wearing any MEPHISTO shoes: The flexible, permanently elastic and extremely soft SOFT-AIR midsole reduces the shock from walking to an absolute minimum. This relieves the joints, vertebrae and the spine - it is like walking on a soft carpet of moss, making you feel fit and full of energy even after many hours of wear.

The shape of the shock absorber has been optimized to promote more comfort while walking and to efficiently reduce all shock. The SHOCK ABSORBER protects the heel every step of the way. Maximum heel protection is achieved by the shock absorber. The shock is gently absorbed away.

The leather upper has been treated with Hydro Protect to offer water resistance. Hydro Protect is not fully 'waterproof' but provides better protection against water penetration.

The flexible removable footbed is made of natural and breathable materials that are shock absorbing as well. This footbed is easily replaceable. It could also be washed, promoting proper foot hygiene. The anatomic footbed adapts perfectly to the shape of the foot thus improving overall fit. Preserving the particular anatomy of the foot also helps avoid pronation maintaining and protecting the health of your feet. The removable footbed guarantees the optimal hygiene of the foot.
