Soft-Air technology | fatigue-free walking!

The secret to the exceptional comfort of MEPHISTO shoes lies in this innovative technology: the extremely soft, flexible and permanently elastic SOFT-AIR midsole reduces the shocks inherent in walking to a strict minimum.

To accommodate the upright walking posture, the human foot exhibits great anatomical and functional complexity. Thus, a quarter of the approximately 220 bones in the human body are located in the feet.

In order to protect the areas of the foot which, when walking daily in shoes, are particularly sensitive to pain caused by the shocks of walking, MEPHISTO has equipped each model with its SOFT-AIR TECHNOLOGY.

A healthy climate

Throughout the day, our feet are confined to shoes most of the time. This leads to increased sweating in many people – the climate inside the shoe suffers from a greenhouse effect: excessive sweating, fungal infections, and other foot diseases are often the result.

SOFT-AIR TECHNOLOGY, in combination with the natural leather of the upper and lining, ensures a healthy climate at all times.

A walk without fatigue

The shocks inherent in walking cause constant pain throughout the body. Walking on hard surfaces exposes joints, discs, and the spine to these unnatural stresses throughout our lives.

Special shock absorbers in the heels and a flexible, cushioning SOFT-AIR midsole integrated into all MEPHISTO shoes and sandals reduce shock to a bare minimum.
